Rugby Triathlon Club
The Viridian Daventry Triathlon will take place on Sunday, September 8th 2019, and will again be sponsored by local Daventry business Viridian Nutrition and organised by Rugby Triathlon Club.
The Viridian Daventry Triathlon is a sprint distance race. Each relay team may have two or three members.
With a two person team, to be eligible for prizes in the relay event, the first person will swim 400m in the Daventry Leisure Centre, the second team member will cycle 20km through Northamptonshire countryside, before passing back to the first team member to run 5km around the scenic Daventry Country Park. Any other combination (with one person completing swim and bike or bike and run) may compete, but will not be eligible for prizes.
With a three person team, the first team member will swim 400m in the Daventry Leisure Centre, the second team member will cycle 20km through Northamptonshire countryside, while the third team member will run 5km around the scenic Daventry Country Park and cross the finish line.
In eight years, this race has established itself as being well-run and safe, offering a great starting point not only for those new to the sport but to the more experienced triathlete looking for a challenge.
There will be road closures for the finish area, a t-shirt, an iconic medal for all finishers and age category prizes.
Each year, Rugby Triathlon Club chooses charities for which the club's members fundraise. This year, the race will be in support of two great local charities Bloodwise and Children's Christmas Wishlist.
