LONDON TRIATHLON

The London Triathlon is a biggy of the multisport circuit. And by biggy we mean the world’s biggest triathlon, held across super-sprint, sprint, Olympic and Olympic Plus distances – plus a number of relay options – over two days at the ExCel Centre in the London Docklands (give yourself plenty of time to get there before your race). 220’s Matt raced London many moons ago. “While the Docklands setting won’t be give tri beauties Blenheim, Howard or Windsor any sleepless nights, London is one of the first races I’d recommend to tri newcomers. It’s the sheer scale of the event – slickly managed by an army of marshals, medics and technical officials – that has few rivals on the tri circuit.” livetotri.co.uk
