What is Norwich Junior Triathlon?
It is a starter event for young people interest in the sport, or just wanting to try something a bit different. You do not need to have any specialist equipment to take part (see our guide here) so why not come and give it a go?
The event is affiliated to Triathlon England and operates to Triathlon England rules so if you are more serious about the sport it is a great step up to the Norwich Triathlon which is run every year by Tri-Anglia.
Competitors of all ages swim in Hewett’s swimming pool then cycle around part of the school field before running a number of laps of the Hewett school grass track. The distances for each age group are:
| Age | Swim | Bike | Run |

| TriStar 1 (age 9-10) | 150m | 2km | 1200m |
| TriStar 2 (age 11-12) | 200m | 4km | 1800m |
