Lake Side Aquathlon

A great course for people looking to try out a multi-sport event or seasoned athletes out for a blast! Making the most of one of north Tynesides best swimming pools and a run past the picturesque lake and through the wooded area around the Killingworth Lakeside Centre. The results will be posted to the Tyne Tri Website. This is a Regional, Junior Grand prix, so you can compete with the best in the county or only with yourself and the clock. If you’ve never done a multisport event here are some pointers… You start in the pool at the allotted time. You swim the right distance. You get out of the pool at the shallow end. Go and get your trainers on. And Run ( the right distance) Your time is taken from your specified start time to when you finish your run, so getting changed and drying off will cost you dearly. If you start late or in the wrong posiiton then your time will include this delay. What to wear? Ideally a tri suit but you can run in a swim suit and tee shirt or whatever you feel comfortable in running up Great Lime Road on Sunday Morning straight out of the pool! What you’ll need : Goggles. A swim cap (optional). Swim Suit or Tri Suit. A number belt (optional) or safety pins to pin your number to your t-shirt. Trainers. As long as you are 8 years old or over you can compete. There are no restrictions pertaining to club affiliation, organisations or experience. Just enter and do it.
