Try triathlon with NC&TC

Never done a triathlon? Our British Triathlon qualified coaches welcome everyone, from first-timers to experienced racers. Come to a Monday session and try a few before you decide to join.

Where and when

Every Monday evening, Newmarket Leisure Centre.

  • Winter: swim and run alternate fortnightly

Swim 17:30 to 18:30 (£4 per session). Run and bike start at 18:30, meeting at the leisure centre. Not sure which is on this week? Ask us.

What to bring

  • Swim: costume, goggles and a towel
  • Run: trainers and kit for the weather
  • Bike (summer): a safe, roadworthy bike

Not sure? Just ask when you arrive.

How it works
