Blyth Triathlon Club
Blyth Tri Club is affiliated to the BTA and CTT. Though recently affiliated to the BTA Blyth have been established as a triathlon swim club for over 15 years.The club meets for a coached swim session at Blyth Sports Centre each Saturday at 5.30 pm till 6.30pm. Other clubs and masters swimmers use this session and are welcome. Coaching is planned to cater for different levels of ability. Members also organise swim sessions at local pools during the week and open water swimming is arranged during the summer.
Track run sessions are organised though most members are also members of a running club. Blyth Running Club also based at the Sports Centre has coached sessions Mondays and Wednesdays. A weekly bike ride meets at the Three Horse Shoes, Horton on Sundays at 8.00 am and then onto Morpeth for 8.30 am. Members can take part in the local CTT arranged cycle time trials.
The club has assisted each year in the past with the council-run Blyth Triathlon. In the future we also plan to promote our own event. Membership is £10.00 per year (£5.00 students) and membership forms can be obtained at the Saturday swim session or for further information contact the club secretary.
