Some good news; the BTF have relaxed their insurance demands, and non-members can now compete!

NOVICE WAVE: Swim - 200 yards. 4 lengths of the pool.
Regular wave: Swim - 400 yards. 8 lengths of the pool, for everybody, novice and experienced alike.

The bike and run courses will be the same.

bike - 10 miles. 1-circuit around Glapthorn, Upper Benefield, Lower Benefield and Oundle. A couple of nasty climbs, but 1-mile of twisty decent around the Benefield's and a 40mph stretch just before the Golf Course!
