Local event
The Windrush Aquathlon is a 200m swim immediately followed by a 2.5k run. It’s an annual local event that has been going for 9 years in the beautiful surroundings of Brockwell Park and Lido This year, it takes place on Sunday 30 June 2019 – and you could be in it!
What is TriFit?
Gesine Junker from Windrush Tri club says: “We’re an easy-going, very friendly and welcoming club who help our members tackle the three triathlon sports – swimming, cycling and running. We have an increasing and diverse membership. However, we’re really aware that, compared to the local population, the club is under-representative of both women and people from Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic communities. So we’ve want to show the local community that triathlon is for everyone, and invite more people to give it a go.

“We’ve developed a ‘Try it out’ programme called Tri Fit Brixton, which aims to address the perception of the sport, and open up the club to a wider range of people.”
