Here is the timetable for the week-end.  Also looks like we have about 20 people going!

Saturday morning 0900hrs. Swim. 1km to 2km swim but it’s awesomely beautiful…Location:  Glanllyn camping/caravan site ; 2.5miles south of Bala with Lake on left.  (post code LL23 7SS). Stop at gate and pay the ladies £5 per car.  This allows parking and use of showers.  They are expecting MVH Tri Club – so should not be surprised!

Martin Covey to lead 50ish mile hill climb and welsh countryside stunning route
Sue Herriman to lead shorter route – flatter Lake views route – with eh… undulations.  Also stunning views.

After Cycle:  Immediately into run.  (It’s a training week-end)  Two options 5km and 10km.
Lead is Warren Simms.  Run is north on pavement track up Lakeside to Bala and return is 10km.  Slighly undulating but broadly ok.
