Sundowner Triathlon at Allerthorpe Lakeland Park
The Sundowner Triathlon takes place on Saturday 12 September 2026 at Allerthorpe Lakeland Park, Pocklington, York. The event is currently sold out and a waiting list is open with over 150 people on it.
The venue uses a shallow, clear man made lake with water depths of about 5 ft to 7 ft, allowing entrants to stand in some areas. The lake is sheltered from wind so conditions are typically flat. The bike course follows quiet country lanes around the park and nearby villages; it is open to traffic, well signed and run as a non draft legal leg. The run is a flat trail around the lake that is spectator friendly; the route has been adjusted to avoid the canal tow path.
Several race formats are offered, including relay and aquabike options:
- Sprint Triathlon - 750m Swim, 20km Bike, 5km Run
