Hiya just wondering if anyone knows of any triathlons in the eastbourne neck of the woods? or if there is a list of them anywhere? olympic distance preferably,
Harry - I note from another thread that you're 16. so I assume you'll be 17 next year which means you can take part in standard distance events, but not longer than that until you're 19.
I'd also suggest that (assuming you aren't already a member) you join Bodyworks Tri Club in the town as they have a very active junior section and you'll get a huge amount of benefit from the club in your training

Hi Harry
There are an increasing number of tris in the area (I'm also in Eastbourne and am a BTF official - aka referee)
Two in Bexhill - Bexhill Lions tri in June (standard and sprint) and Bexhill Tri in August (sprint) - both sea swims
Sussex Triathlon in July - http://www.sussextriathlon.co.uk/ - held at Ashburnham Place near Battle - sprint/standard/middle distance races. lake swim
Bewl Triathlon in August - http://bewltriathlon.co.uk/bewltriathlon/index.html - Bewl reservoir near Wadhurst - sprint & standard. lake swim
Rye Triathlon in July - http://www.ryetriathlon.co.uk/ - actually at Winchelsea Beach not Rye. sprin & standard races. sea swim
South Coast Tri in July - http://www.fun2tri.co.uk/south_coast/index.htm - Seaford. sprint and standard. sea swim. long established event (my 1st tri back in 2003)
Brighton Marina Tri in September - http://www.brightonmarinatriathlon.co.uk/ - obvious location! sea swim.
