Buckingham Triathlon announced for 2012

Created On: 27 October 2011

On Your Marks Events has pleasure in announcing the brand new Buckingham Triathlon which will take place on 17^th June 2012. This particularly pleasant new pool sprint triathlon has the swim section at the Buckingham Swan Pool Leisure Centre with ample spectator viewing, a country road cycle out of town, and a partial woodland run section.

The Leisure Centre is perfect for the 400m swim section of the event, with its 6 lane pool, modern facilities and direct access to the transition area on the field opposite. The cycle stage begins by meandering through the ancient part of the town and very quickly leads out to the Buckinghamshire country roads. This fast section takes cyclists up towards Westbury, through Finmere and Tingewick before returning to Buckingham Town. The run then follows a pleasant out-and-back route along a section of the wooded circular footpath before finishing by the Leisure Centre.

Entries will open in early November.
