Event
The Sundowner Triathlon takes place on 12 September 2026 at Allerthorpe Lakeland Park, Melbourne Road, Pocklington, York. The organiser is U Prevail Events. The event uses a man-made lake for the swim, a bike course on local country lanes, and a flat trail run around the lake. The open water swim depth is between 5 ft and 7 ft in sheltered conditions.
