Mendip TRC are pleased to announce their spring Standard and junior Aquathlon will once again take place in the stunning grounds of Millfield School.

An exciting addition to this already popular event will be that the pool will be in an open water swim race setup . So instead of lane ropes the pool will be open and competitors will be required to swim around a 400m course ( 150m for the junior race ) marked with buoys. This gives ideal opportunity for those who are new to open water racing or for those more experienced athletes to practice their skills in an early season race environment.

The 5k run ( 1.5k for the junior race ) will be traffic free and mostly flat on mixed terrain around the grounds of the school campus finishing on the athletics track . This year the event will also be fully chip timed.

This event is aimed at all abilities - For the complete novice we do have a GOTRI event happening before the standard and junior races.
