Junior Aquathlon is Back!

The Bedford Junior Aquathlon returns to Bedford Park and Robinson Pools & Fitness on Sunday 6 October.

The Aquathlon is a combined swimming and running event for children from school years 3-11. There will be five age categories from 'Tristar Start' with year 3's challenged to swim 66 metres and a 600 metre run all the way up to 'Tristar 4' with years 10 and 11 students swimming 400 metres and completing a 2.8km run.

Bedford holds a Junior Aquathlon twice a year, with over 100 kids taking part in June's race this year. It's a great chance for kids of all ages to try something a bit different and get active

The deadline to book a place is Tuesday 24th September at 5pm. It costs £8 per child to enter the Aquathlon; bookings can be made online at www.bedford.gov.uk/aquathlon
