Try a Ting- Fun Day

Date: Saturday 27th September 2025

Location: Surrey Docks Fitness & Water Sports Centre, Rope Street, SE16 7SX

Check-in Opens: 10:00

The Black Tri Tribe invites you to our Try a Ting Fun Day – a unique and inclusive introduction to triathlon designed for beginners, families, and anyone curious to give it a go. This is not about competition; it’s about participation, confidence, and community.

On the day, you’ll get to experience all three elements of a triathlon:

• Swim: Take on either a 30m or 300m open water swim – perfect for both first-timers and those wanting a little extra challenge.
• Bike: Ride on our indoor spin bikes (provided) where you can select your own distance and pace without the need to bring your own bike.
• Run/Walk: Complete the event with a relaxed or energetic 2km loop – walk, jog, or run, it’s your choice.

You decide how much or how little you want to do. Whether you complete one element or all three, the goal is to step out of your comfort zone and celebrate what’s possible.

Why join us?

✅ Beginner-friendly and family-friendly

✅ Supportive marshals and volunteers on hand throughout

✅ No need to bring equipment – everything is provided

✅ A safe and welcoming space for all abilities and backgrounds

✅ A chance to be part of a growing movement breaking down barriers in sport

This event is about community over competition. Whether you’re dipping your toes into open water for the first time, challenging yourself on the bike, or enjoying the run/walk with friends, every achievement counts.

Who is it for?

• Adults and young people looking to try triathlon in a safe, fun environment
• Families who want to get active together
• Community groups and clubs interested in encouraging participation
• Anyone who has ever said “I’d love to try but…”
