Organiser's Description

On Sunday 14th June 2020 TRISudbury will be hosting an Adult and Junior Triathlon.

Whether you are new to triathlon, or keen to lock down a sprint triathlon PB, this is the

triathlon for you. With events for both juniors and adults, the Sudbury Triathlon is fast

developing a reputation as one of the most competitive yet inclusive and family-friendly

events in the region. We are excited about our plans to grow the event in this, its fifth year.

We are very proud of the fact that the Sudbury Triathlon was recognised as a British

Triathlon East Region Adult League event in 2019, attracting competitors from right across

East Anglia and beyond. While many in the field were hotly contesting league points, the

safe and secure environment in which the events are run also make it an ideal first time

triathlon for those wishing to dip their toe in the water, or a great social event for teams

wishing to compete as a relay team.

We are pleased to announce we have also been chosen as an East Region Adult League Event for 2020.

Adult Sprint Triathlon

400m Swim - 23km Bike - 5km Run

The 400m swim leg takes part in the open-air pool at the Great Cornard Sports Centre and

is followed by an undulating 23km bike route through the beautiful Suffolk countryside.

Competitors then partake in a predominately flat, 5km run staged entirely off-road though

the stunning scenery of Great Cornard Country Park, before finishing in front of cheering

crowds on the school fields.

The bike route is available here (subject to change): Bike Route (Strava) / Bike Route (youtube)

The run route is available here (subject to change): Run Route

Please be aware that the Sudbury Triathlon is run under British Triathlon Competition Rules, a copy of which

is available online British Triathlon Competition Rules, please take the time to read through.
