Effingham Adventure Event on Sunday 22nd March

Event Date: Sunday 22nd March,

Hi Tri-Adventurers, due to the recent news reporting about the cancelling of events and uncertainty due to the corona virus, I have had to make the decision to follow suit and cancel the Effingham event due to the very low sign-ups for this event. This is a shame and I would like to reassure that all who have signed up will receive a full refund, or you can request to be transferred to a future event. Adam

Registration from 07:30am for the Long and 08:30am for everyone else. Starts from 08:30am on the Long, and the 1 and 2 hour category a 10:00am mass start.
