From Registration to Finish Line: Your Aberfeldy Triathlon Weekend Rundown
The Aberfeldy Triathlon requires good logistical planning to get you to the start line as prepared and focused on your challenge as best you can be. Don’t be put off by the thought of split transitions and several different venues; we have put together a detailed guide to help you navigate your way across the event weekend.
You have got the training plan in place, the “enter now” button has been pressed so what next? We recommend you create a plan for the weekend including: sort your travel arrangements, book your accommodation, check out where to eat and make a table booking, particularly for that all important pre-race evening meal. Most importantly know where you need to be, to do what and when.
A simple bullet point plan:
Saturday
- Register in Aberfeldy
- Go to a race briefing in Aberfeldy
- Drop your Run Kit Bag off in T2 in Aberfeldy
