Please arrive 15 – 30 minutes before your wave start time. This should give you ample time to familiarise yourself with transition, warm up, discuss any queries you may have with the team and use the facilities if necessary. Waves start at 09:00.  Start lists will be posted on this page with your number and official start time the day before the event takes place so no need to email just keep an eye out.

Car Parking

There is ample parking at Barnoldswick, using either the school next to the leisure centre or local on street parking, so no worries in this department. There will be no parking ion the leisure centre, however our registration van will be there and we promise you wont miss us.

Your race number and medal will be provided on registration at arrival. You’ll then be directed towards transition where you will keep your bike and trainers and any nutrition/hydration you may require during the event.

Transition Area

You will have a specific area within transition where you can keep your bike, running shoes and any nutrition/hydration you require during the event. Please keep any bags or items you will not need during the event in your car. There will be no additional storage available.

The start will be on poolside at your allocated time. we will send full start details out ahead of the event.

Swim

Swim will start and finish on poolside. You will leave via the fire escape and make your way round the building towards transition.

We will have support on poolside, but it is your own responsibility to count your own laps and ensure you finish the swim after the correct distance.

Ride

The mount line will be well out of the car park/transition area, and it will be marked with a flag. The dismount line will be at the same line as where you mounted your bike. Please walk/run with your bike from/to transition. DO NOT mount or dismount before these points. This has been put in place to avoid any confusion between cyclists, runners or motorists as well as providing additional space to adhere to social distancing.

All riders MUST wear a helmet and will not be allowed on the course without one.

Run

Please run on the left side of the track to allow for overtaking and returning runners.

Please ensure you are adhering to social distancing measures while running. Overtaking is allowed but if you are overtaken, please drop back slightly to allow for adequate distance. If you overtake, please move over to the right, but ensure you avoid any oncoming runners.

Finish

The finish line will be at the start line where your time will be manually recorded. Please make your way safely from the finish line back to transition where you will be able to cool down and catch your breath.

Please do not return to the finish line at any point after you have finished. This is to avoid any unnecessary contact.

Results will be posted online and emailed on early in the week following the event, please do not ask for your time at the finish. Please also be aware that results are recorded manually and while we make every effort to ensure accurate results, human error is possible. If any results appear incorrect, please let me know by email and I will endeavour to amend these before submitting to British Triathlon.
