Thank you for visiting the website of the Erewash Novice Triathlon 2010, Erewash Junior Aquathlon 2010 and 1 mile Family Fun Run.

The Erewash Novice Triathlon started back in 2007 and since then the event has continued to grow and generate interest from all over the Midlands and beyond. In 2007, the event reached our maximum of 180 entrants and again in 2008 and 2009, the maximum 350 was reached well before the closing date. We hope that again in 2010 the interest will continue and everyone that takes part has an enjoyable day and wants to continue on to do more.

In 2010, the organisers will continue to run the events over a weekend with the Junior Novice Aquathlon on Saturday 14th August 2010 along with the FREE 1 Mile Family Fun Run (Fancy Dress optional but welcomed). It is hoped that this will be a family friendly day with added attractions for all during and after the event.

The Erewash Triathlon will take place on Sunday 15th August 2010 and we have opened the event to experienced triathletes as well as novices. To ensure fairness, the organisers will split participants in to one of these two groups so that they are competing against competitors of the same level. The Triathlon involves three sports - Swim, Bike and Run. Entries can be from either individuals, teams (consisting of three people with each person completing all three sports) or relay teams (consisting of three people with each person only doing one sport).

This weekend is a great introduction to the multi-sport events of Aquathlon and Triathlon so if your up for something new with your family, friends or work colleagues give the event a 'Tri'. Each year we have more people returning to take part and we want participants to enjoy the experience of the day!

The event in the past two years has attracted a number of participants to collect sponsorship for a charity of their choice. In 2008, participants collected over £6,000 for various charities and the event organisers welcome any participants that with to take part for their chosen Charity in 2009. In addition, the event organisers have taken on board comments from last years participants and adopted a Charity to support for the 2009 events – The Children’s Trust, a national charity providing a unique combination of care, therapy and education to some of the UK’s most severely disabled children. Participants will be given the opportunity to support this charity when entering the event.

FULL DETAILS FOR THE 2010 EVENTS WILL BE ADDED IN JANUARY 2010. PLEASE REVISIT THIS SITE AT THAT TIME TO OBTAIN FULL EVENT DETAILS.
