Sprint Tri in April?

[mickwood]

Anyone know of any Sprint Tri's happening in April? Ideally not too far from East Midlands area!

My plan is to try and do one a month. I'm booked for March and come payday I'm booking into one for May but no joy for April yet

Cheers

Mick

I'll be at Duston for my first ever tri so hopefully it'll be a good one.

I did Duston last year and it was my first triathlon. Well organised event...hope you enjoy it.

Ditto, I've entered Duston this year as my first Tri.

Went along to watch last year, appeared to be well organised with a good atmosphere. Not sure I'll be feeling the same way this year as I (hopefully) stagger over the finish line.

Good stuff SW. I have to say that I'm really looking forward to it.

Is it a good effort for spectators then? If it's a good one I'll try to get my wife along to watch. If not I'll save that for a race later in the season.

Get your wife alog to watch your very first Tri. You'll only make the fist timer mistakes once, so you might as well let her enjoy them

Hi GR, as TRIumphants says get your wife along, from last year the pool has a viewing area and the transition area was also easily viewed. I am assuming they will use the same set up this year.

All the best!

I'm also entered in this !!!
Just a bit of advice for any newbies entered in this race .

Do some hill training on the bike , as there is about 5 decent hills ,nothing major but be prepared !!!

Thanks for the advice bullet, perhaps undertaking my first tri on a mountain bike will not be to bad!!
