Human Race – the organiser behind major calendar fixtures such as the Windsor Triathlon – has invited UK triathletes to follow in the footsteps of the Brownlee brothers and train in Switzerland.

The country is praised for offering outstanding training facilities across a range of disciplines, as well as an excellent transport system and being within easy reach from the UK (just one hour's flight from many airports).

Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee have both trained in Switzerland for the past four summers, with Jonny commenting: “Both of us have responded really well to training at altitude and spending a month in St Moritz each summer has been brilliant.”
