ultra-FIT TRI CHALLENGE RACE INFORMATION IS NOW AVAILABLE IN .PDF FORMAT. PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE FOR THE LINK.
ultra-FIT and the UK’s leading event organisers, Human Race have teamed up to create this fantastic fitness testing event.
With a range of distances and team options available there is something for everyone, whether you’re a triathlon expert or a complete novice and if you want to tackle it alone or as part of a team.
And the venue could not be more perfect. Dorney Lake is the triathlon venue of choice in the South East and offers a completely flat and traffic free course for both the bike and run and the water is clean and safe. It’s simple to get to from the M4, offers easy parking and is perfect for spectators who can cheer you on for almost the entire race.
There are two different distances on offer and both can be tackled on your own or as part of a relay team of three doing a section each.
The ultra-FIT Tri Challenge will make a great day out for you and your friends and a fantastic introduction to the UK’s fastest growing sport. And with a children's ‘Scootathlon’ (4-8 year olds) also taking place just before the main event, it really will be a family day out.
There will be three elements to the day's racing:
TRIATHLON CLUB waves (Half Distance Only): within which local triathlon clubs will be hosting their own intra-club championships. Available Triathlon Club waves: Eton Tri Club, Evo Tri Club, Ful-On Tri, Kingfisher Triathletes, PwC Tri Club, Team Kennet, Thames Turbo, Thames Valley Triathletes.

If you are interested in setting up your very own wave, be it TRI CLUB or HEALTH CLUB, please contact heidi@humanrace.co.uk for further details.
Look out for a competition in next month's ultra-FIT where you can win a free entry for you and your mates to the ultra-FIT Tri challenge!
Race details, including timings and wave structure, will be emailed out to all entrants at least two weeks before the race and you will also be able to see them on the website.
ultra-FIT Magazine will be carrying an issue by issue training programme to assist all entrants for the ultra-FIT Tri Challenge starting with the January issue.
The event will be held at the Olympic Rowing and Kayaking venue for the 2012 Olympic Games. Dorney Lake offers a clean open water swim, followed by a closed bike loop around the Lake, and finally the run goes down the side of the lake, making it the perfect course for beginners and seasoned triathletes alike. It's great for spectators, they can see you on each lap.
Full on-site parking means you can come and go while the event is taking place, we have showers and toilets aplenty and there is catering and an on-site triathlon store provided by triandrun.

Dame Kelly Holmes Legacy Trust
Dame Kelly’s vision in setting up her own charity was to make a
difference to young people in disadvantaged communities using sports
stars as inspirational role models and mentors. Our mission is to
inspire young people to find and fulfil their potential in sport or in
life through a workforce of elite sports performers. Uniquely, all of
the charities’ activities are delivered by world class athletes, most of
whom are Olympians, Paralympians, World and Commonwealth Champions.
They work directly with young people as role models and mentors,
encouraging them to find and believe in their own potential through a
series of innovative projects. We're proud to start our partnership with
Human Race and hope to see you at one of the events in the year ahead.
If you would like to receive a fundraising pack or get involved with our
