What is the race?
The Windrush Aquathlon is an annual local swim and run event run in the beautiful surroundings of Brockwell Park and Lido in Brixton. The 2026 event will be our 15th Aquathlon!
At Windrush Triathlon Club, we are keen to increase diversity and local participation in multi-sport, and we think this is a great step in the right direction.
The race is a 300m swim immediately followed by a 2.5k run.
Aquathlons are exciting, safe events to start getting involved in multi-sport activities. On completing the race, you will receive a medal to celebrate your fantastic achievement!
Trifit will begin the week commencing 18th May 2026 and, after 6 weeks of training, concludes with the Aquathlon on Sunday 28th June 2026.
