Junior Race Distances

The distances for each Juniors event are based upon the age groupings specfied by the British Triathlon Federation.

These distances are designed to challenge triathletes but to be approriate to the capabilities for the age of the competitors.  As with all Triathlons, the physical aspects of the facilities available may result in some minor variations in course distances.  However, the majority of Children's events are held within a controlled environment with a closed circuit for both the bike and run segment of the event.

The standard distances by age group are detailed below.  These are the maximum distance by age group and the distances vary especially for the younger age groups:
