Why You'll Love It:
The Big Lime weekend, which takes place in the Historic Hartlepool Marina and runs along the Seaton Promenade, is a fantastic local event that showcases the coastal scenery while offering an action-packed weekend for the entire family. It is open to participants of all abilities, both experienced triathletes and those who never competed in a triathlon challenge, are encouraged to sign up. An occasion that once again welcomes and connects the local community after being postponed for the last two years due to COVID-19, it’s a great opportunity to be involved with the triathlon community. To encourage and promote good practise, we support all of our marshals and provide access to maps and instructions. Throughout the day, hot and cold drinks and a free bacon sandwich are offered as refreshments.
