News update 02/06/2018

Well done to everyone that came to the lake today. We hope you all enjoyed the training session. If you have any other question feel free to drop me an e-mail.

Bring everything you would need to race a triathlon.
Park in the premier inn car park on the right hand side of the premier inn car park away from the hotel.
Follow the yellow arrows to get to us. We don’t have toilets on site so use the ones in the beacon pub. 
Print off and put in your window a piece of paper say that you are taking part in an event in the lake.
It starts at 10am with the swimming section.
Regards
John
