25/06/2009 - Newbiggin Bay Triathlon
A message from Gary Wright
Following the success of the Ashington and Wansbeck Sprint Triathlons, Tri Northumberland in partnership with Wansbeck Sport, the organisers, have decided to convert the Aquathlon on the 13th September to a new exciting sprint triathlon.
A 750m open-water sea swim in the protected bay at Newbiggin-By-The-Sea, followed by a flat 3 lap bike course passing the promenade, then a 5K run along the spectator-friendly promenade with some beautiful views along the bay. An excellent open water triathlon (ideal for beginners) set in a perfect location.
There are taster and coached sessions (by an open-water specialist) organised for both beginners and experienced athletes alike, to help get you into the best condition and confidence for the race and make it a thoroughly enjoyable day. If you are interested then please contact race organisers via email gwwright@btopenworld.com or attend the club swim session on Saturday (17:30 swim start) at Blyth Sports Centre.
