The Wee Tri Sprint Triathlon
The Wee Tri is a sprint distance triathlon based at the Lochaber Leisure Centre. The event starts with a 400m pool-based swim. Following the swim, participants transition to a road bike course and a run course, both of which utilize the landscape of Glen Nevis.
The event structure includes three distinct disciplines:
- 400m pool swim
- 15km road bike ride
- 6km run
The bike leg consists of an out-and-back route along Glen Nevis road, passing Ben Nevis and turning at the Lower Falls car park. The running segment also follows the Glen Nevis road before turning onto forestry paths around Cow Hill to return to the leisure centre.
The transition area is located in the field adjacent to the leisure centre. For the swim, participants start in a staggered format based on their estimated completion times. Participation is open to individuals aged 15 and older, and the event offers both solo and team categories for groups of two to three people. Refreshments and prizes are available following the conclusion of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
