We're Back

‍

Stockport Tri Club is celebrating our tenth year as a club with what we hope will be our biggest event ever! After positive feedback on our last two triathlons, we're returning to Poynton Leisure Centre this Autumn with a multi-sport event that we hope will offer something for everyone. 

‍

Making it even more special for us, we've chosen to dedicate this event to our friend John Sanders, a long time member of STC who we sadly lost last year. John was a great swimmer and cyclist and was passionate about triathlon, supporting lots of newcomers to the sport on the early stages of their triathlon journeys. We think he would have enjoyed this event, and especially the number of people who choose it as their first triathlon, and we will enjoy remembering him on the day.

‍

Suitable for all comers from beginners to seasoned triathletes, STC’s Sprint Triathlon will consist of a 400m pool swim, with controlled lanes and seeded starts, followed by a 20km (approx) undulating bike ride around the scenic lanes of Higher Poynton and a 5km (approx) run taking in the Middlewood Way. 

For those of you that like to compete as a team there's a relay option for the triathlon. 

‍

There will also be an aquabike (swim and cycle) race. And this year we’re adding a sprint duathlon (run, bike, run) too as well as relay options.  

‍

We love hosting events and want as many of you to join us as possible, so we're setting our entry fees super low: £20 early bird if you enter before the end of June, and £30 after. You’ll experience the same great stuff as previous years - same venue, BTF graded 'outstanding' organisation, chip timing, a medal to mark your achievement, refreshments at the finish. And a brilliant, supportive atmosphere, as triathletes from across the region come together to do what we love most on the day.
