The ultimate team relay triathlon. All team members complete all disciplines – the first person swims, tags the next, who then completes the swim, etc etc. Then they cycle, then they run! The event is electric, one not to be missed. Awesome fun, great atmosphere and perfect for everyone, from those starting out to the hardy triathlete.
