Ripon Triathlon Festival
Really positive atmosphere and great for a 1st time triathlon. Photos were excellent and run route picturesque.
Everyone - staff and competitors was super friendly. Finish line announcer was a nice touch. Event photos excellent - as were the sports massages.
Great venue and facilities. Enjoyed swim, bike and run routes. Very friendly inclusive atmosphere.
Helvellyn Triathlon
More value than any other event double the price. Amazing scenery, epic hard bike hill and awesome mountain run with the most dedicated and supportive marshals all over the fells. All wrapped up in a nice, friendly, well-organised environment. Ian M
...this was undoubtedly the best event I have done for so many reasons... the marshals are the best in the business, the beauty of the event is unrivalled, and the organisers have nailed the small-scale community feel. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Stuart N
Would highly recommend! Paul F
A great event, my favourite of the year and certainly one of the most memorable Tri's out there... you won't forget it! The good - Scenery, location, community feel, marshalls, safety. James P
Have done it twice now and both times well organised. Joe M
Best race of the year. Joe A
Excellent triathlon, really well organised as all event info and prep is seamlessly delivered around race day. It feels really chilled out, but I'm sure all the organisers and volunteers were working really hard. Sacha E
