How To Get There
By Car:
The full address for the event is Dorney Rowing Lake, Dorney, Windsor, Berkshire, SL4 6QP.
By Train:
If travelling by train the main stations for Dorney Lake are Slough (Paddington line) and Windsor & Eton Riverside (from Waterloo) but is also near Burnham, Taplow, Maidenhead and Windsor & Eton Central (branch of Paddington line). From these stations you can get a taxi or if with a bike you can ride to the venue. We recommend researching the best option before travelling to ensure you arrive on time.
Parking
Parking is available in the main carpark to the left of the clubhouse and this is free. Ignore the parking meters as there is no charge on event day.
Event Day Information
Registration will be open from 7.30am (you will see our Orange Gazebo before you get to the Clubhouse!) and will close at 9.30am.
When registering you will receive a RACE CHIP and race strap. This will correspond with your race number. This is essential to record your time. Please make sure it is on before the start of the event (this must go on your left ankle) and hand back to our team once you cross the finish line.
Please make sure your race number is pinned to the front of your t-shirt or tri belt for the bike and the run section and must be visible.
If you are not BTF registered you have to pay the £5 levy at registration. If you are BTF registered please remember to bring your license.
After registering you have to rack your bike. You MUST wear a helmet otherwise we are not allowed to let you participate.
The current water temperature is 24 degrees so wetsuits are not allowed to be worn. Trisuits, swimming trunks etc are fine. If wetsuits are banned then competititors are ok to swim without tops on, so bare torsos are permitted, but only for the swim leg. Sports bras are fine, but again, athletes must cover up for the rest of the race.
Please note we will provide another temperature update Thursday evening and again on Friday if need be.
All bikes MUST be racked by 9.40am.
You can leave your race gear in the transition area. ONLY those taking part are allowed in to transition.
We will provide swim caps which can be collected on the day.
The race will start at 10am sharp and will go off in 5 minute wave intervals.
You will receive details of your wave group and time in an email prior to the event.
The road will be closed at 9.15am. Anyone arriving after this time will have to park in the middle car park and walk down.
Please make sure you come prepared and have all your essential kit with you including wetsuits which are recommended for the swim and helmets which again MUST be worn on the bike.

FAQs
Can I register on the day of the event?
This is possible only if the event isn’t sold out. This will be stated on the website prior to the event.
When do I receive my race pack?
We email you your race number and details and this also goes on the website prior to the event so you can search if you haven’t received your email for any reason. You then collect your race packs at registration on the morning of the event.
How do I know I am registered?
You will receive an email confirming your entry. If a friend or colleague has entered as long as they have used your email address in the entry you will receive confirmation.
Will I receive race information in the lead up to my event?
Yes we send out email updates prior to your event and you can view all event details, news and offers by logging in to your user profile.
Will I be chipped timed?
Yes all our events (unless otherwise stated) are chip timed! In most cases you will use our disposable race chips. You need to ensure you put these on correctly on your shoe (race instructions will be given via email and this info is on your event information page on your event page).
Can I find the race number list prior to the event?
Yes, your event race list will be online approximately a week prior to your event. Please make a note of your race number and that of friends as you will collect your race pack on the morning of the run.
What happens if I don't receive my race email?
If you don’t receive your race email it may be because the wrong email address was inputted or the race email went in to your junk mail so please check carefully. All information will can be found by logging in to your user profile and your race number will show within this account area.
Can I Enter a team?
Absolutely! Get as many friends, family or colleagues together and run as a team. You are not required to run together and each person will receive their own time however it's just fun to run under a team name.
Can I run with a buggy?
Yes this is typically ok for most locations however please check the run route course as some locations can be a mix of path, trail, grass so not always suitable for running with a buggy. Also please try and stay to the left as much as possible to give room for other runners.
Can I volunteer to marshal at the event?
Absolutely! If you miss out on a place or just want to help out on the day and marshal that would be great. You would be there to support and encourage all entrants. Contact us by filling the form to express your interest. We would welcome you to join our team.
