Georgie says I am keen to emphasise that these events are for beginners, and clubs could use the event to attract new members and should encourage their new inexperienced members to take part and also their friends and children - Entry forms can be retrieved from me.Club secretaries please if you can circulate this around your membership emphasising that this is for beginners or novices only. It will be very suitable for triathletes partners or children who fancy dipping their toes in in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, without committing to a full-blown triathlon.
