Try-a-Tri
When: 30 August 2008
Time: Registration from 07:30, swim start at 08:00
400m swim - 6 mile cycle - 3 mile run

We are hosting a 'Try-a-Tri', which is another great opportunity to see what triathlon is all about, without the stress (and cost!) associated with entering a race. It is aimed at club members, local folk and friends who want to give it a go and see what the Pentland Triathletes get up to! We have booked Balerno High School pool as usual from 7:30-8:30am, so it is not an open water swim as earlier suggested!

The swim will be 400m (20 lengths), the cycle 6miles (Rigg Route), and the run 3miles (Water of Leith / Lymphoy). This event will not be marshalled or timed, although no doubt a few stopwatches will be running!

Afterwards there will be refreshments and a chance to chat, compare elastic laces and discuss the merits of shaving ones legs before an event!

Please e-mail me if you are keen to come along so that I can get an idea of numbers. Cost is £3 for members, £4 for non-members.

We do need some helpers to ensure that all runs smoothly - please e-mail me if you are able to take on a job.
