In July 2010, East Essex Triahtlon Club will
once again be organizing the Grays Triathlon, sponsored by Wilkins Kennedy.
The race, now in it’s 10th year, is an ideal Triathlon for new and
experienced Triathletes. The bike
course around Grays and Orsett is relatively flat and the run course around
the Blackshots park and neighboring rugby pitch is a traffic free course
which is mostly flat but with one small rise at the start of each lap. Every
year we see experienced athletes from across the Eastern region return to
beat their previous times. We also see many novice triathletes, who choose
the Grays Tri as their first or second race because of the friendly
atmosphere and excellent organisation. All our marshals and organizers are
triathletes and family members and they all know and understand what it’s
like to compete in a triathlon for the first time – so they are all full of
encouragement and friendly smiles are you complete the course. The event location is: Blackshots Leisure
Centre, The course consists of 12 lengths of the 33
metere pool at Blackshots – swam in a snake like fashion, starting at one end
of the pool and continuing under the ropes to the next lane at the end of
each 2 lengths. Then is a quick exit from the pool to the numbered transition
area, directly outside the pool. (Note: this year we will introduce a clear
transition policy to give everyone plenty of space. We’ll provide a storage
area, away from transition to store your belongings but we won’t allow any
bags etc in transition). The Bike section is 2 laps of pretty flat
riding. There are 3 slight rises on the old A13 before you enter Orsett
village and head back to Blackshots. (see the map for more details Bike Route
here (two laps)). The Run section is also 2 laps of a grass
circuit, which takes in the grounds of Blackshots park and a neighboring
rugby pitch. (See this map for a detailed view of the Run Route
here (two laps)) We have a prize giving ceremony, usually
within a half hour of the last person finishing and our organizers pride
themselves of making the results available online within a couple of hours of
the race completing (the results will probably be online before you are even
home after finishing!!) The race directors for 2010 will be:
