Triathlon is a sport in which swimming; cycling and running races are combined into one event. This combination promotes better overall body fitness than any one of the individual sports. 

Events vary in length, depending on age of children participating from short pool based races for novices up to ultra distance for extremists.

The only triathlon club in Merseyside that is affiliated to the National Governing Body is Mersey Tri, a club that was formed in 1986. The club does not have one single base for training but sessions are held at various locations. 

The club is keen to develop in Liverpool so why not give them a call!
