NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR MAZDA BLENHEIM TRIATHLON 2010

Sports Tours Triathlon is pleased to announce that we have once again been appointed the Official Sports Travel Partner for IMG and the Mazda Blenheim Triathlon 2010 which will take place on Sat 5th and Sun 6th June 2010 at Blenheim Palace. Stuart Hayes (again!) and Jodie Stimpson took the honours in 2009

This is one of the most scenic triathlons on the domestic calandar and is a great way to get into triathlon in a safe environment as it takes place on closed roads. This is the second largest triathlon in the UK behind the London Triathlon.

There will be the Super Sprint event which includes a 400m swim in the lake, 10km cycle on closed roads within the Palace grounds and a 2.5km run. There is also the Sprint event which includes a 750m lake swim, 20km cycle and 5 km run.

We are now able to offer a limited number of exclusive 1 and 2 night packages which will include Individual Entry places in the event of your choice, with overnight accomodation within walking distance close to the race start plus the services of Sports Tours Tri personnel.

The hotel we have choosen is in a great location, a short walk away from Blenheim Palace and the race start. The hotel features an award winning two AA Rosette Restaurant and is famous for the roaring log fires in the Bar and looks over the peaceful town square.

Accomodation is on a bed and breakfast basis, allowing you to stay close to Blenheim the night before your chosen event, with a full English Breakfast (if desired) or full Buffet Breakfast giving you a good and relaxing start to race day. Oxford is only 6 miles away. This is a great day out for spectators – make sure you bring
your friends and family along! Blenheim Palace provides a stunning back drop for the event and will be open for Palace tours throughout the weekend.

We have 1 Night Packages (FRI or SAT) available and if you wanted to make a weekend of it we also have some 2 Night packages available so that you can enjoy the beautiful surrounding Cotswold countryside or the towns of Oxford and Stratford upon Avon which are close by.
