Barton Marina Sprint & Standard Distance (9th August 2009)Posted by Gazza on July 13th, 2009

Organised by Chaserace, this triathlon starts at Barton Marina between Burton-upon-Trent and Litchfield.

OD Distances: 1.5K Swim (OW) – 40K Ride – 10K Run
Sprint Distances: 750m Swim (OW) – 20K Ride – 5K Run

The OD swim actually takes place in two lakes making it rather special and a great spectacle for spectators, the sprint is in the one lake. The bike leg looks like a good ‘un with a few ups and downs (check this link for the route map and click on the elevation button on the left hand side for details). The scenic run is around the perimeter of the lakes.

Simon at ChaseRace puts on a great event, let me know if you have any questions, this race is highly likely to become one of the key BCTTT team events in the future.

Let me know if you’re going!
