About the event
From the organiser
Set in the magnificent North East, this event is based at Washington Leisure Centre and includes a pool swim, a lapped run course around Pricess Anne Park and a fast and fairly flat lapped bike course around Washington. Two distance options.
Reviews
Did the event in 2017
A positive first outing for this race.An honest course that has challenge in the bike and run sections. Transition was poor with no numbers or any guidance so bikes were hung incorrectly. Many first timers I suspect so it needed marshalling. Swim was pool based and done in waves. 5 seconds between each swimmer wasn't enough and after pushing off the wall I caught up with the guy in front. Bike route was multi lap on open roads. It did go onto the slip road of the Washington highway but I didn't feel unsafe at any point.Run was tough with multi lap course with a challenging hill! Marshalling on the course was fab. Helpful on the bike course and supportive on the run.nice high 5 bottle and gels with entry was appreciated!The event took me through the Tri process before my main events and that's what I wanted and got.
