Organised Chaos

A fun, team challenge like no other in triathlon! The acutely named ‘organised chaos’ of the Triathlon Relays attracts up to 2000 athletes taking part in men’s, women’s and mixed relay teams of four athletes per team.

Teams to comprise 2 male / 2 female athletes in the following age groups: Junior, Senior, Vets 40+, Vets 50+ all in the same age category as of 31/12/24. Team Manvers (normally) opt for the afternoon wave. Gives chance to travel and rack.

The Format - It’s very simple; in teams of four, each person does one element of the triathlon, then tags the next person, sounds simple hey! The first-person swims, then tags the second person, they then swim, and so on until all four team members have swum. The fourth swimmer will hand over the 'baton' to the first cyclist, which is also the first swimmer, who then does the 15km bike, hand the 'baton' to the second cyclist (second swimmer), and so on. All four complete the bike course individually, tagging the next competitor once they have completed their 15km, and then the final cyclist tags the first runner, also the first swimmer/cyclist. When all four have completed 5k run individually, the final runner crosses the finishing line in front of the grandstand.
