- Step Up Aquathlon: 600m swim, 6km run
The venue provides on-site catering options including hot drinks and homemade pizza, plus facilities such as changing, showers and toilets. Event features listed by the organiser include accessible parking, aid stations, chip timing, finishers medals, prizes and online results.
Introductory open water sessions for beginners are scheduled at Shepperton Lake on 22 August and 6 September and must be booked in advance. Entry is available online and the organiser expects around 75 competitors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
