Crystal Palace TriathlonSunday 18 October 2020 sees the return of the popular Crystal Palace Triathlon, organised by Crystal Palace Triathletes (CPT). The race comprises swimming in the 50m pool at the National Sports Centre (training pool used for TriStarts only), cycling laps of a closed circuit within the park (closed to traffic!) then running in the park, finishing in the renowned athletics stadium. 

Race information: Further information and updates will be published on our Club website as they are made available.

Estimated swim times - When completing the online entry form, you will be asked for an estimated swim time. It's important you are as accurate as possible as we set swimmers off according to their swim times. You will have a chance to update your time closer to the race.

Race T-shirts - This year we are offering a race t-shirt to purchase alongside your entry.  T-shirts will be distributed at registration on race day.  T-shirts are available in adult sizes from XS to XXL and in children's sizes from Age 3/4 to Age 13/14.

Junior/Youth/TriStar race information

Entries for the CPT junior triathlon are in the following British Triathlon categories (age as of 31 December 2020):

  • TriStart - 8 years (50m swim / 1k cycle / 600m run)
  • TriStar 1 - 9-10 years (150m swim / 4k - 2 x 2k cycle laps / 1.2k run)
  • TriStar 2 - 11-12 years (200m swim / 6k - 3 x 2k cycle laps / 1.8k run)
  • TriStar 3 - 13-14 years (300m swim / 8k - 4 x 2k cycle laps / 2.4k run)
  • Youths - 15-16 years (350m swim / 11k - 5 x 2.2k cycle laps / 2.5k run)
  • Juniors - 17-19 years (350m swim / 11k - 5 x 2.2k cycle laps / 2.5k run) - this category has been added for the purposes of the London Series. Juniors wishing to qualify for the London Series or who don't feel able to complete the full sprint distance should enter this distance. Other juniors can enter the full Sprint race and compete in the Under-24 age group.

The Youth/TriStar races will be run according to British Triathlon rules, ages and the distances raced. We aim to set courses using the upper limits of British Triathlon guidance and they are therefore at the tougher end of junior triathlon races – please do take this into account when considering entry.

Race entry: TriStart - £15; TriStar 1 - £23; TriStar 2 - £25; TriStar 3- £27; Youths/Juniors - £35

The bike course for all categories is contained within the park but (except for TriStart) is tough as it involves a hill climb and fast descent on each lap of the park. Please ensure your child is confident and able to complete the course before entering them.
