Tri Together, run by the charity Leonard Cheshire Disability, is an accessible, short-distance triathlon for people of all ages and abilities. The event will take place at Salt Ayre Sports Centre on Sunday 07 July.

This new event has been designed so everyone, from beginners to seasoned triathletes, can take part on their own or share the challenge together in a relay team. A junior race has also been introduced for children aged 8-16 so the whole family can get involved. Tri Together is also fully inclusive so disabled people are being encouraged to sign up.

To help beginners feel equipped and prepared for the event, the Cheshire Disability team are hosting free a training session at Salt Ayre Sports Centre this Sunday April 14 from 9.30-12.30 and there are still a small number of places available.

Experts from COLT triathlon club will be on-hand to share advice and answer questions.
