Ability level

If you can confidently swim 100m, ride 25km and run 5-7km, that’s great. Get involved with some Go Tri events and pool-based novice and sprint triathlons over the summer. This will stand you in good stead for the Clevedon Triathlon.

Training

Training is strongly recommended. A managed acclimatisation swim following the SwimRun is on offer. You can also join the ‘mid-week warriors’ community group to help with your training.

Safety

Safety across the event will come in the form of kayakers for the swim section and appropriately positioned marshalls for the bike and run courses.

A very well organised challenging event. Great open water swim, technical bike and beautiful scenic run. Vince P.

Loved this event so much. So well organised and the marshals were fantastic even though there was biblical rainfall for the swim and cycle. Michelle L.

Loved it, though the run section would have preferred a more flat and open route as opposed to very hilly over and around Poet’s Walk. Event marshals were very supportive, really great atmosphere and will definitely do this again next year. Omar E.

Fantastic. Really well-run event. Dan L.

Very well run event with super clear navigation and very helpful Marshalls! The run wasn’t the most enjoyable (too many steep sections for a 5km route) but the swim and cycle were excellent. Ross J.
