Club Relays still open for entries

Places still available for ever popular relays

Published: August 15, 2011 at 9:07 am

Entries are still open for the awarding winning & unique Club Relays event. The Club Relays is one of the most exhilarating and fun events on the UK calendar, taking place on Saturday 27th & Sunday 28th August at the National Water Sports Centre, Nottingham – home of The Outlaw Triathlon & Nottingham Triathlon.

The Club Relays revolves around teams of four using a tagging format where everyone swims, everyone bikes and everyone runs in a race that looks like a mixture between competition and chaos.

Now in its 20th year the Club Relays really is the focal point as well as the vocal point of the season for many teams who look to a real club event to bring them together and where camaraderie & teamwork really pay off.

This year due to high demand, there is an extra wave added to the weekend on the Sunday morning. BUT don't worry, you can still party in the evenings, it's a Bank Holiday!

With a 400m swim, a 15km bike & a 5km run any four people can get together and make up a team and race in one of the range of team categories available. There will be some serious racing out there on a completely closed road course over which your team mates can see you (and shout at you) for the duration of all three disciplines. Ever fancied racing a triathlon in an arena, well this is as close as it gets.

If you just want to join in the fun & are not worried about fitting into a specific category, then just enter the open category in any of the three events. You choose when you race.

Online entries are still available for the female (Saturday afternoon) & male (Sunday morning) events. If you wish to race in the mixed (Saturday morning) event, then please telephone the office on 01427 718888.
