Trentham Tri

Well, I'm in at long last - middle distance - but can't say I'm over enthused about it  

Anyone any idea how they count the laps on the swim, looks as though it could all get a bit confusing to me

The middle distance people get to go first, then 1 hour later everyone else gets to go

I know they give you wrist bands for the run, but know about swim laps or bike laps

Event details from2009

I found it quite useful reading the instructions from the 2009 race, link above

Oh dear... the Oly peeps start 5mins after the Sprint swim wave...

*worries about gettting drowned*

ps just read the bumpf... 'tis not wettie compulsory is it?

I have got some of the temporay pirate tatoos coming and should be here for this, will need to keep hold of some for the Outlaw but will bring sme down for this

This years race info is out and they have changed the bike course quite a lot.

Only 5 laps now and 58 miles, it was an out and back course its now a loop so should be as boring
