Well done to everyone that ran, and thanks to this years committee for being so great during such a strange year!

Massive congrats to everyone who competed in the Roses Unlocked Pentathlon last weekend!!
Our women's teams came overall 1st and 2nd and our men's team came 1st!
Brilliant effort everyone!! 🥇🥈🥇

Roses unlocked is next weekend! 30th April - 2nd May. Sadly this year we are unable to run a full triathlon but we are still getting involved as a club. We have 4 teams entered into the pentathlon. If you are interested in competing in any of the activities, message the page or one of the committee members to get signed-up!

We’re back! Starting from tomorrow training is back on and we can’t wait to see everyone. We’ll be using the google doc sign-up format like last term so keep an eye on the Facebook group for the link!

Hey! If anyone would like to do some Zwift/zoom group rides, let me know or like this post, would be great to get a group together
Club past and present and friends are all welcome 🙂

We’ve got a sponsor! 🚴🏼🎉

This year our club will proudly be sponsored by Triathlon Bikes 😁 They’ve got a shop on Walmgate selling road bikes, wetsuits and more. They also have an in-house coffee shop, Kona Coffee ☕️ !

And thanks to Triathlon Bikes every paying member of the club gets 2 piece of kit for FREE! Check the chat or message our Kit Reps for more!

We hope to be involved with future events hosted by Triathlon Bikes, sign up to their newsletter to see what’s happening!

We’re back in lockdown and it sucks. We can’t train together but we want to make sure that we still feel connected as a club and keep ourselves active.

We’re hoping to do an online social, such as a pub quiz, so that everyone can see each other and have a laugh. We’re in this together.

Our coaches will also be giving out running sets in the group chat so keep an eye out for that.

We also have a club strava group, it’d be amazing if you could all join! Search for University of York Triahtlon (UYTC).

If you have any questions drop us a message!
