Overview

The 2-lap swim takes place in the beautiful, lazy River Ouse, followed by a bike course that takes you through some of the most scenic villages in the area.

This event takes place on the same day as the St Neots Triathlon, with the Aquabikers finishing their event before the Triathletes head out on their bike.

The timing for the aquabike will stop at the entrance back in to transition, a few metres after the dismount line.

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
