The Last Tri Lydney : event overview
The Last Tri Lydney is a pool-based triathlon held in Lydney GL15 5DZ, UK, organised by Trimax Events. The event offers separate Sprint and Olympic triathlon distances and a duathlon option. The swim takes place in an indoor heated 25-metre pool. Transitions are described as secure and results are chip-timed; finishers receive a medal and there are prizes for first to third in each distance. Participants must be at least 16 years old.
The bike course leaves the leisure centre area and follows an undulating route through the surroundings of the Forest of Dean; the cycle begins with a notably steep climb and includes downhill sections. The run is organised as a looped, generally flat course.
Participant feedback recorded for the event highlights consistent points: many cite the pool swim and scenic bike route positively, while others report inconsistent signage and variable marshalling on the bike and run routes. Some reviews mention changes or route confusion on the day; other reports praise leisure centre facilities and helpful marshals at the pool.
