Win Tickets for TriLive 2010

With the triathlon season around the corner, a visit to the TriLive Show – part of this year’s Outdoors Show at the NEC, Birmingham – in March (26 - 28) guarantees the perfect start to your year of training and racing.

Here are just some of the great opportunities to explore at TriLive - for more information (including opening times and ticket prices) visit www.theoutdoorsshow.co.uk.

1 Pick up a free gift

Meet the Triathlete's World team, pick up great free gifts and take advantage of an amazing subscription offer when you subscribe to the magazine at TriLive. The show is also an opportunity to share your passion for swimming, cycling and running with fellow triathletes. Stories of tough training, overcoming adversity and amazing race experiences are sure to inspire your 2010 triathlon season.

2 Take a tip from the top

With two Olympic rowing gold medals to his name, James Cracknell could have retired from sport, but his competitive nature wouldn't let him, so he's thrown himself into triathlon. Find out the secrets of Cracknell's triathlon success when he takes your questions at the show.

3 Kick-start your training

Visit TriLive's speaker zone to pick up training advice on everything from how to train for your first triathlon to what to eat and drink for peak performance. Speakers will include triathlon coach and GB triathlete Ralph Hydes and Julian Goater, top running coach and former GB athlete. Other speakers will be confirmed closer to the event.

4 Get race ready

Warm up for the season ahead by taking part in one of the many great races on offer at TriLive. Events include a TriLive Duathlon, the Outdoors Show 100 Bike Ride (which will be started by James Cracknell) and the Outdoors Show Run, ensuring there's something
for everyone. All participants in the bike ride will receive a free ticket to the Outdoors Show, and the first 1,000 entrants to the run and duathlon will also receive a free ticket to the show.

5 Treat yourself

If your triathlon kit bag needs updating, TriLive is the perfect one-stop shop for your gear needs. Splash out on a new wetsuit by Blueseventy, treat your feet to some Foor shoes or prepare for summer with Sundog Eyewear.

6 Beat injury

Say goodbye to sore knees and everyday aches and pains when you visit one of TriLive's qualified sports rehabilitation professionals. You'll receive an injury assessment and treatment programme.

7 Try something new today

You're a triathlete; you love multisports, so you might be interested to find out about sports you've never even heard of - like slacklining, geocaching and mountain boarding - and more familiar sports such as kayaking, fell running and mountain biking.

8 Go wild

Wild swimming has never been so popular. Find out where to go, what kit you'll need and how to get the most from every wild-swimming experience. Experts will be on hand to share their love of river, sea and lake swimming.

9 Challenge yourself

Race against other visitors to the show - and put in a training session -
on the Computrainer Cycle Simulator. There will be prizes for the three fastest cyclists to complete the time trial.

10 Climb the walls

Climbing is a great way to develop your core strength. At the 2009 Outdoors Show, more than 5,000 people tried climbing for the first time. There will even be ice climbing if you're inspired by the recent Arctic weather!
