Session details
This is a coached intro to swimming for triathlon.

A chance to be coached by the University’s professional triathlon coach, who will help start you on your tri journey.

Louise Barron, University of Birmingham triathlon coach, says “I am really excited about coaching the LGBT Swim for Triathlon taster session. The new university sports centre is a fantastic venue and I’m really keen to encourage more LGBT people to take their first steps to becoming triathletes!”

Please book this free triathlon session via Eventbrite if you want to attend this session. 


If you fancy a more leisurely swim – or perhaps a spot of water polo – or want to work on your running to get ready for triathlon – take a look at the rest of our FitFeb programme and plan your month of activity:
