One of the most beginner-friendly, stunning triathlons in the UK, this is the perfect entry point for anyone wanting to dip their toes in this fast-growing sport. The pool swim means you’re not floundering in choppy, open waters as well as not having to shell-out for an expensive wetsuit; the bike ride takes you through some of the most picturesque parts of the Snowdownia National Park; and the run is along Harlech beach, finishing with a triumphant 1-in-4 climb up the rocky crag to the 13th century Harlech Castle.

“The emphasis is on safety and fun, so don’t feel you have to buy all the expensive kit to take part,” says organizer Anne Fuller.

How much?
£32 for individual entries
£44 for teams of three
