END THE TRI-SEASON ON A HIGH NOTE

British Triathlon are launching a series of ‘Intelligent Race Days’ (IRD) at Mallory Park, operating under Covid-19 Secure Guidelines. This event has been designed to allow Para, Senior, Junior and Youth triathletes to race over the months of July, August and September 2020. 

The application and entry deadline for these IRD’s can be seen below. Places will be limited and if over-subscribed, places will be prioritised according to an athlete’s level on the performance pathway and/or best submitted race result. You can apply direct by using relevant links on the British Triathlon website which can be found: Here

The format of these races will be as follows:

At all times, athletes will take part in the required ‘socially distanced group of one’ in a time trial format to meet Covid-19 Secure requirements.

For each activity on the day, all athletes will be in one ‘wave’ and must:

  • Start 20 seconds apart in an individual rolling start,
  • Keep the mandatory minimum distances behind (swim: 2m; bike: 10m; run: 2m) at all times unless overtaking.

Athletes will be ordered in each wave in a way to minimise the chance of overtaking.
