Banbury Triathlon & Aquabike 2025
We are back for 2025 with our offerings of a Sprint Triathlon, Super Sprint Triathlon or Aquabike. Your choice!
Triathlon distances are 750m swim for the sprint or 400m swim for the super sprint in the fabulous 50m (heated) open air pool, 20km bike ride in the rolling Oxfordshire countryside and a 5km run on an ‘out and back’ mixed terrain course.
Aquabike distance is 750m swim and 20km bike - it's like a triathlon but without the run!
These races are open to both individuals (Sprint & Super Sprint & Aquabike) and relay teams (Sprint triathlon only) – just make sure you select the correct form.
