LOCAL COMPANIES INVITED
TO ENTER TRIATHLON
23 FEBRUARY 2006
From the WMDC Press and Communications Office
The
search is on for Wakefield's fittest company at the British Triathlon
National Championships in the summer.
Entries
into the Wakefield Triathlon are being invited from local companies. They
will need three people per relay team - one for swimming, one for cycling
and one for running.
Pugneys
country park will form the setting for the event, which will also see
athletes challenging for a place in the Great Britain team for the ITU World
Age Group Championships later in the year staged in Lausanne, Switzerland.
There
is a separate race for the corporate teams with prizes for the first three.
The
race, on Sunday 2 July, includes a 1500 metre swim in the lake, followed by
a 40 kilometre bike ride and a 10 kilometre run.
The
event is organised by Tri-Society and Wakefield Council and has been
confirmed as the British Triathlon National Age Group Championships.
Pugneys
will also host a training and warm up event on the day before.
For
more information to register your interest in the event, visit
www.tri-society.co.uk and send an email via the link. Entry forms will be
sent out to all those registering their interest immediately.
