Festival of Triathlon

AJ Bell 2021 World Triathlon Leeds is back this year! Roundhay Park in Leeds on June 5-6 is the location for the world's best triathletes and paratriathletes to compete for a place at this summer's Olympics and Paralympics, and for those British athletes already selected to represent Team GB this summer to prepare for Tokyo. Plus, for the first time ever, the World Triathlon Para Series will be taking place in the UK, bringing the highest level of international paratriathlon racing to Leeds. There’s also chance for you to take on a triathlon during the event weekend and experience a blue carpet finish in front of Mansion House for yourself. Whether you’re an aspirational or Age-Group triathlete, everyone can get involved with a choice of three triathlon distances to choose from. In this special episode of the podcast, with British Triathlon, hear how to book your place and get involved and the options available for you to swim, bike, run. British Triathlon Chief Executive Andy Salmon and Event Director Wayne Coyle reveal how they're staging this year's Covid-Secure event following last year's postponement. And we hear from Jonny Brownlee, Claire Cashmore, Georgia Taylor-Brown and Jess Learmonth.
