“I had a fantastic day competing with my son, in Sunday’s Triathlon. We had a fantastic family day with my wife, two of my daughters and my in-laws who all came along to support us. We intend to compete as family next year and want to thank you and your team for hosting a fantastic event and for all the hard work you put into it.”
Derek McDonald, St. James's Place

"Fantastic event, this was my first triathlon and I thought it was just right. The event was well organised and the facilities were great. I will sign up for next year, I'm hooked......”
Danny Carey

“I would like to say how much I enjoyed the event. As the oldest entrant and a first time triathlete I did not know what to expect apart from the pain! I thought it was superbly organised and the results by text on the way home was the cream on the cake. I know the amount of time and effort put into this kind of event; it was a credit to all particularly the marshals who seemed remarkably cheerful!”

“I can’t believe how well organised the event was. I have run the London Marathon three times and the Great North Run and neither of them were as well organised! Well done to all involved.”
Gary Short

“It was one of the best organised events I have ever competed in. Very Happy.”
James Taylor

“It was a brilliant day. A great triathlon for a great cause. Brilliant for first time or newer triathletes. The event was organised brilliantly and the facilities at Nuffield were amazing. Parking was very easy and close to the event. The food after the race was delicious, what a great idea. It was some of the best post race food I have ever had :) Overall I would recommend the event very highly and look forward to taking part next year.”
