Stewertby, Bedfordshire is the perfect venue for testing yourself on a flat course where the tempo is high and the competition is fierce and friendly!

Whether you are an experienced athlete looking for a very fast time over the one of the distances, or you are a novice competitor looking for a safe and friendly venue for your first open water triathlon, then London Brik triathlons are ideal. Stewertby is a great venue; the course will allow you to push beyond what you think you’re capable of. Whether it’s your first triathlon or you’re trying to get that PB you’ve been chasing, we guarantee you’ll enjoy this fantastic venue.

The swim takes place in the beautiful clean waters of the Old Brick works, with a simple Rectangular course,  followed by a two or four lap bike course that will let you put down all your power through your pedals, this bike course will amaze you once you’ve seen your bike spilt. The run is a one or two lap out and back course around the sailing lake that loops past the finish area on your laps so your friends and family can support, and cheer you on. The venue offers camping and ample car-parking, so it’s an ideal event to bring the family to as they’ll get to see you swim, bike and run as well as have the opportunity to enjoy the park environment.
