Event day logistics

Race Packs
Your race guide will be sent to you via email. The race pack containing your number, chip, swim hat etc will be picked up at registration.
If the organiser feels during the run that you are not going to finish in time then you may be asked to stop. Try to ensure you are ahead of the cut off times as you can’t rely on catching up later in the race. If you are behind you may be asked to return to the venue.
Aid Stations
There will be aid stations on both the bike and run courses, offering (to be confirmed and subject to change/availability) water/High 5, Xendurance gels, bananas, crisps, and jelly babies. Cola and water will be offered at the run aid stations.
Wetsuits
The event will follow the temperature guidance set by British Triathlon. It is expected that, as with most races, the majority of participants will choose to wear a wetsuit if water temperature allows.
Kit
  • Wetsuit (incase necessary)
  • TT or road bike

FAQs

Do I need trail shoes for the On The Edge Middle Distance Triathlon?
Some of the run course will be run on public footpaths and trails. Whilst you may like off-road shoes for this section, most entrants will be wearing regular running or racing trainers. If it has been dry then regular running trainers will be fine. If it has been very wet for a prolonged period it could be muddy in parts.
