As the summer heat begins to fade and a new sporting season kicks off, we know that there are many of you who would like to get into or improve your triathlon level. Sportzone is therefore organizing a 'Get into Tri' session. This is directed towards new or beginner triathletes who would like to learn more about triathlon training and racing, gather some good tips and lessons learned from experienced triathletes; and enjoy a relaxed informal race at the end of the session to put it all together!

We hope to see many budding triathletes at this session.

Places are limited to 20 attendees so sign up now to ensure your slot!
