Club Champs is back and this year we are heading to Brighton!
The triathlon is on Sunday 1st September. If you’re new to the club, then the club champs are a great opportunity to do a bit of running/cycling/swimming/cheering, and a whole load of socialising and making new friends. Despite being called club champs, there's not really anything championship-y about it and it is really just a fun weekend away with the option to do a bit of exercise. All abilities are welcome and encouraged to attend. Lots of people opt to do a relay which means there will be chasers supporting at any one time. It also means that there is a great support crew if you want to have a go at doing your first triathlon!
Plan for the weekend:
Friday evening - Travel down to Brighton + Dinner and optional drinks (we will pre-book somewhere)
Saturday morning - Easy group cycle or run, or if you don't fancy that you can explore Brighton and rest up ahead of the race
Saturday lunch - Feel free to do your own thing and use the WhatsApp group to meet others
Saturday afternoon - Sea swim and play on the beach
Saturday evening - Dinner and optional drinks
Sunday morning - RACE DAY!
Sunday afternoon - Train back to CJ
If you can't come down on the Friday then feel free to join at whatever time suits on the Saturday, just let us know whether you want to be included for Saturday dinner by marking on the spreadsheet.
