Gabby Logan

A message from Gabby Logan to all TIMEX WomenOnly Competitors:

"I’ll be there competing alongside you on the day as part of Team Breast Cancer Care, the official charity. Like so many of us, I’ve known people who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and seen how the disease has affected them along with their families and friends. I’m delighted that the money raised from this wonderful event will be put towards enabling Breast Cancer Care to fund essential free services across the UK such as their helpline, website, discussion forums, one to one support sessions - all of which ensure that no-one need feel alone or unsupported when going through, or affected by, breast cancer.

To be part of my team for Breast Cancer Care, please contact a member of their sporting team at sporting@breastcancercare.org.uk or on 0845 092 0804. They’d love to hear from you and I’d be delighted to have you join me!

Best of luck with the rest of your training and I very much look forward to seeing you soon. Don’t forget to visit the Breast Cancer Care tent on the day too!"

Training

For last minute training and top tips download our free training plan from the training page on the website. If you have any training questions thetrilife.com are on hand to help you. email Humanracecoach@theTriLife.com.

Race Information

The race information will be emailed to you and will be available on the website within the next week. This will outline everything you need to know about your race. Racing starts from 12 noon. You will collect your race number and timing chip when you register on Saturday, however please check the website to confirm your entry details are correct.

The Swim 

We realise this is the part a lot of you won’t be looking forward to! However remember you’re not alone and there’ll be lots of people to help you. Dorney Lake also offers a great swim with its calm and clear water and there will be safety crew on hand and to guide you. Whilst not obligatory, we would recommend that you wear a wetsuit – 99% of the field will be wearing one. It doesn’t matter what type of wetsuit you use, but a triathlon specific one is designed to give you added buoyancy and mobility for swimming. Contact www.triandrun.com or email wetsuithire@blueseventy.com for sales or hire.

The Bike

Again if you don’t have a racing bike, you can use any type of bike however we would encourage you to have it serviced before race day. Once you have registered, you will rack your bike in the secure transition area. If you need any last minute items for your bike or the race all our sponsors and leading brands will be on site exhibiting and selling their products over the weekend, including Triandrun, the UK’s leading triathlon retailer.

Support Our Official Charity, Breast Cancer Care

Many thanks to all of you who are raising fund for this very worthwhile cause. In the UK someone is diagnosed with breast cancer every 12 minutes. Your help will make a difference to those diagnosed with breast cancer and those affected by the disease.

The Copthorne still has few rooms available and is great value for a 4 Star hotel. The same rate also applies if you want to stay Friday or Saturday night and make a weekend of it. Contact:  leanne.bennett@millenniumhotels.co.uk and ask for the triathlon rate.
