Emberton Country Park
Car Parking/ Camping

The park has ample car parking from which you can walk or ride to the transition area. Marshals will direct you to the active car park location. Please DO NOT park alongside the access road when the first car park becomes full. Whilst it may save you a 2 minute walk it hinders the race and in some cases interferes with the run route. More importantly it blocks access to emergency vehicles and it could be you they are trying to reach. When returning to the car parks from transition after your race do not use the run course as a short cut as this will severely spoil the race enjoyment of people still to finish.

Camping is  available  within the grounds of the park. You can see the full park details on the web link above or give them a call on 01234 711575. When booking camping let the park know you are taking part in one of our triathlons to qualify for the discounted price.

Registration

The registration tent is located next to transition and is a maximum of 5 minutes walk from all the car parks.

Toilets

Plenty of portaloos will be positioned next to the transition area. The park has further permanent toilets by the main car park and at the top of the park. We always have a supply of loo rolls so if they run short please let someone in the registration tent know.

Food and Entertainment

Chubby, our perenial purveyor of probably the best burgers in the world will be on hand supplying hot and cold food throughout the day. The famous Chubby Burgers attract almost as much recognition as our events! For the more health concious Chubby provides baguettes and sandwiches of the highest quality and at prices to take your breath away. Please put all litter in the bins provided. There will be a number of trade stands offering bikes, triathlon clothing and wetsuits so come prepared for any deals that may be on offer.

Timing

Electonic chip timing will be provided by Race Timing Sytems.

Massage

Body Limits will have a massage table set up and for a nominal fee you can have a professional massage.
