Good Morning All
First an apology. We should have checked whether there were any other significant local events on, and if we had done we would have spotted the date clash with the Great East Run. Many of you were quick to point out our error. As we don’t want to find out what happens when 300 triathletes meet 3000 runners on Freston Hill we thought we better find an alternate date.
As such can you pop the 6th September into your diaries as the provisional date for your 2020 race.
Yesterday (5/6/20) British Triathlon published some draft guidance documents detailing how to organise events in light of the Covid-19 outbreak. It is likely that some, or all, of the proposed guidelines could still apply to races in September, and as such your race-day experience may be modified accordingly. We are involved in discussions with BTF on the proposed changes later this week, but it is likely that we will have to wait until much closer to race day before we can detail exactly what changes we might have to make.
Thank you for bearing with us, and we look forward to seeing you on the day.
