“With all the excitement surrounding the Jenson Button Trust Triathlon in July, we were keen to have a follow up event happening shortly afterwards in the city”
— Claire Duffin, HUUB Events Race Director

The swim will take place in the 33m pool, then a bike route through the local area past the famous Rolls-Royce factories before an off road run which will finish on the athletics running track. The transition will be in the centre of the running track.

There will be something for everyone including a Junior Triathlon (100m/2.5km bike/1km run) for 8 to 14 year olds, a Super Sprint (200m – 10km bike – 2.5km run) and Sprint Event (400m – 20 km bike – 5km run).
