Getting started

Three ways in

However you get involved, you'll be training and racing alongside people at a similar level.

Beginners

Give It A Go

Two free weeks of training at the start of the year, ending in a beginner-friendly duathlon — no bike or wetsuit required.

Training

Weekly sessions

Coached swim, bike and run sessions for every pace, plus club bikes you can borrow if you don’t have your own.

Community

Racing & socials

Club trips to local and national races, and a social calendar that runs alongside the training week.

About us

A club for every kind of triathlete

We’re a student-run triathlon club connected to the University of Sheffield and Sport Sheffield, open to students and staff of all abilities. Sheffield sits right on the edge of the Peak District, where our outdoor bike sessions take place, and club bikes are available to borrow if you don’t have your own.

Some members are training for their first sprint triathlon; others are working towards qualification times. Most weeks you’ll find both training side by side.

Getting started

Come to a session before you decide

Full membership isn’t needed for your first visit — turn up to any beginner-friendly session to see what training’s actually like.
