The #51fiver is back in 2024. After yet another sell out year in 2023, we are excited to go again at our awesome Standard Distance Triathlon event held at Lake 32 of the Cotswold Water Park.
The race sells out year on year, so enter early to ensure your place for 2024 on one of the fastest standard distance courses in the UK..! We will also after a successful first year be offering an Aquabike option at this event.
The event starts as always with a 1500mtr swim in the famously clear waters of lake 32 and consists of a 1 lap swim. It is then out of the swim ramp and in to the nearby transition.
It is then out on to the fast, flat bike course of 40k. The route takes in some of the most picturesque areas and villages of the Cotswold including Ewen, Kemble, Crudwell, Charlton, Minety and Ashton Keynes. The road surfaces in the area are very good, and there are long stretches of the course to really open up the taps and go for it.
After a quick dash back in to transition it is out on to the 1 lap run of the local area. The course is pancake flat and is all on tarmac so is super fast and is a big hit with all of our competitors.
All these things combine to make this the perfect venue for a Triathlon and mean the #51fiver Cotswold Standard Distance Triathlon is the ideal event for beginners, the experienced athlete and those looking for a standard distance PB.
