Route information
The swim course of this event will be in a clean and modern 25m heated pool. Moving through transition you have a short run down the hill to the bike mount line. Transition is in the neighbouring school fields to the north of the leisure centre. The bike section is still a technical course and gives you the chance to ride along some quiet Lincolnshire country roads. Although relatively flat the route has been described as a great bike route as 'it doesn't allow you to stay in the saddle'.
The run takes you around some of the lanes in Louth and up an old disused train line along Railway Walk. The walk is very picturesque and a little hidden gem in Louth, and possibly the best part of the race. The water station is positioned so you can get liquid refreshment twice along the 2 lap course. Railway Walk will be closed to the general public on race day, so you can enjoy the tree lined path without interruption.
We have added aquabike & aquathlon to all our triathlon events - so if you fancy a shorter race over the swim / run or swim / bike elements you can enter this race. Held on the same day, you will go into the usual waves of the triathlon race & head from the pool straight onto the run OR bike before crossing the finish line to grab your medal. We think this is a great way to try a multi-sport race.

Great bike route and run route. Was a very long run with bike from transition to the back of the field to the bike mount line. Maybe that can be looked at?

I have done the Grantham tri too and have loved both of these events. The organisation is superb and the volunteers have all been so lovely and encouraging. Thank you x

Very much as I expected, but the run was slightly marred by inconsiderate dog walkers and traffic (parked and passing) on Church Street/Wood Lane. Also in the swim, one bloke clearly not in the estimated "wave" that I entered - lapped me twice in 16 lengths, meaning I had to wait at the end for him to overtake losing time. Overall, worth very penny, and a really attractive meddle to boot. Thank you.

Counting own swim laps is not easy. Run was over 5k I think but overall a great race day. Great marshals and volunteers.

Run course was a toughie. Cycle route was good except for the quality of the surface(obviously not your fault). I only have one slight complaint I would have liked to have got in the water a little sooner. There was not enough time to adjust goggles etc
