Wetsuit rule:
We are often asked if wetsuits have to be worn at our events. But the wearing of wetsuits in triathlon is governed by British Triathlon rules and is totally dependent on water temperature one hour before the start of the event.
Water Temperature | Wetsuit Rule |
Water Temp less than 14 degrees | Wetsuits are COMPULSORY |
Water temp 14 – 22 degrees | Wetsuits are OPTIONAL |
Water temp above 22 degrees | Wetsuits are BANNED |
We do say that wetsuits in fact help with buoyancy and warmth, so we strongly recommend that you wear one if they are optional. We will keep you updated with water temperature as we get closer to the event but at Dorney Lake it is almost always an optional wetsuit swim.
Scootathlon:
Bikes and scooters will not be provided onsite. Please ensure you bring your child’s equipment with them. There is space to store this onsite.
