I completed my first triathlon at Chateau de Chantilly and was very impressed by the amount of organization and attention to detail that the race had. The organizers did a fantastic job with this event and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to compete in a fun and exciting event. Kris H

Just outstanding, and super well-organized! Antoine P

It was wonderful....all was perfect. Many thanks for the event. Leclercq D

Brilliant! Spectacular setting, friendly atmosphere, and everything very smoothly run. Marshalling was excellent as was commentating. The car park was grassy with space for vans to arrive the night before and just beautiful. Can’t fault the event - just wish I hadn’t left it so long to try a tri again! I’ll be back. Anna C

This triathlon is well organized, the volunteers are very nice and motivators throughout the race. I always felt safety, even during the cycle part. Kevin B
