King's Lynn Triathlon Club was formed in 2013 wth support from other local clubs like Ryston Runners AC and King's Lynn Cycle Club. Nearly all our rmembers at the time were already members of these other clubs but it meant we could from their training sessions and rides until we developed our own coaching team. Our membership has changed over the years and with the majority of new members no longer coming from an existing athletics background but complete novices looking to complete their first triathlon. This gives our club sessions an exciting dynamic because it sees complete novices training and competing alongside seasoned triathletes and GB age-groupers, and as every triathlete knows, we do love to talk about triathlon to anybody who is interested - and that's other triathletes.
Despite our diminutive size compared to other clubs in the region, our members are keen to not just race themselves but encourage others. We have organised a number of events ourselves ove rthe years, and our hugely popular SunnyHunny Triathlon up in Hunstanton has been raising money for the RNLI and since its inception in 2018, and we've supported the Outlaw Holkham Half since its first year by organising the best run feed station for them.
If you are curious about triathlon or other mutlisport events, or need some encouragement to train and don't mind listening about triathlon at the same time, you should consider getting in touch and coming along to one of our sessions. All our sessions are listed on the event calendar, along with those from other local clubs we think our members might be interested in.
