“It’s not about the fastest time….its about the journey”

Want to have a different challenge and take part in one of the fastest growing sports in the UK? Want to be supported and encouraged to be the best you can be at a friendly women’s only triathlon?

Run by women for women the Lymm Womens Triathlon is more than just a race and provides a supportive environment for women of all ages and athletic abilities. Starting with a pool swim you’ll then bike into the charming (and flat) Cheshire countryside and then end your race with an ‘off road’ run around the lovely Lymm High Schools playing fields.

Relay Teams
If you struggle with the idea of doing all three disciplines in one go then why not get a couple of mates together and do a relay. Each person will do either a swim or a bike or a run leg. Teamswork!

Event Start times

The sprint race women will be starting first and the super-sprints race will start when all the sprinters have finished. The first wave of 'sprinters' who have submitted the slowest swim times will set off at 8.00am with the quickest 'sprinters' starting at 10.00am (approximately)

The first 'super-sprinters' will be jumping in around 10.00am and the last around 10.45am.

There will be 3minute intervals between each swimmer with a maximum of four swimmers in each lane, less for the elites. We're swimmers so we like our tri swims hassle free!

Precise start times for each competitor will be included in the race information pack posted on this site one week before the triathlon.

The Swim
The triathlon starts with a pool based swim in the Lymm Leisure Centre where you’ll be grouped in a ‘wave’ of swimmers who have submitted similar swim times.

The Bike
After mounting your bike in transition (located within Lymm High School) you’ll proceed onto a carefully selected course before heading back on fast, smooth roads.
Road bikes are recommended although mountain bikes are sufficient to do the job too!
