North West Triathlon - Nantwich
The North West Triathlon takes place at Barony Park & Nantwich Leisure Centre in Nantwich, Cheshire on Sunday 19th September 2027. The event has run for more than 20 years and offers multiple race formats for individual competitors and relay teams.
The course begins with an outdoor swim in one of the only remaining heated inland brine pools in Great Britain. The bike is a single 21 km lap through the Cheshire countryside; the organisers describe the bike course as undulated. The run takes place on lapped grass routes in Barony Park with each lap measuring 1.25 km. Transitions are split between Nantwich Leisure Centre and Barony Park.
All entries receive an official finishers medal and the event uses electronic chip timing. The event is open to a wide range of abilities, includes a dedicated non-competitive TriTogether wave and a CRUK Wave for charity entrants. For CRUK Wave entries the organiser will donate £10 from each entry to Cancer Research UK. Relay teams can consist of two or three people; team members pass the electronic chip between swimmer, cyclist and runner. Competitors must count their own pool lengths and bike or run laps and must wear a cycle helmet on the bike section.
