Pugney's Grind: Big event!

The turnout for the 4 lap, 10km Pugneys Handicap Grind far exceeded expectations. We had a fantastic response to our invitation to Kingstone Runners, running in memory of Maria Micklethwaite and raising money for Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

Also great to see a big turnout from the Wakefield Junior Triathlon Club. Thanks to everyone for your support.

Results can be found here.

Thinking about new exercise challenges for the coming summer? Want to train for that big open water swim?

We are very good motivators here at WTC. Whether you're into swimming, running, biking, or all three - you'll find our enthusiasm very contagious and willl soon be training compulsively.

Go to our Membership Page for more information about membership at Wakefield Triathlon Club.

Wakefield Triathlon Club (“WTC”) is a club striving to encourage as many people as possible, particularly novices, to take up the sport of Triathlon.

We pride ourselves on welcoming newcomers to the sport regardless of their sporting credentials or the level of achievement to which they aspire. We see triathlon as three sports in one allowing individuals to take part in varied training routines, reducing the probability of injury and stimulating ongoing interest in the sport.

As well as regular training sessions and competitive events (enjoyable for the slower, less athletic as well as the finely honed elite) , the club has a strong social side with regular social events organised to make sure there’s plenty of time to get to know your fellow club members a bit better.

Joining the club costs a fraction of what it costs to join a gym and there is a much stronger likelihood that you’ll be back for more! Hope to see you soon.

Why join a Triathlon club? Why Wakefield? How can I achieve my goals? All the questions you were afraid to ask are answered on the Why Join Wakey? page.
