Firstly this Newsletter seemed like the best idea to deliver all of the latest information in one place, as so much is happening all at once Facebook isn't always the best place to notify you as posts get lost in the feed. So these newsletters won't be a regular instalment, unless of course you think it's a good idea? Let us know what you think...

Holkham Outlaw Half Weekend & Derby Junior Triathlon
Boston Triathlon members travelled to the Norfolk coast this last weekend to take part in the Outlaw Holkham Weekend.
Set in the vast stunning grounds of the historic Holkham Estate, Outlaw Half Holkham is without doubt one of the UK’s most beautiful triathlon events. With the onsite camping and the Outlaw running events taking place on the Saturday there is a real festival feel.
Organised by OSB Events, the Holkham Outlaw weekend combines junior racing on the Saturday in the Future Outlaw race series, alongside the Half Marathon and 10k adult races. And then the Middle-distance Half Outlaw triathlon on the Sunday.
The Half Marathon with its challenging undulating course was the first race to kick start proceedings on Saturday morning, with Ian Satchwell winning his age group category in a personal best time of 1hr 34mins.
The 10k event followed on in the afternoon, which saw 5 BTC members race. Alan Wheeler was the first member to finish in a time of 40:04mins.
Open to children from age 4 to 16 the Future Outlaw running events cover either a 1.2mile or 2.4mile course around the grounds of the hall. A total of eleven juniors took part over both the distances.
Hugo Ward and Thomas Benton saw the BTC juniors home in their respective races. There were several closely fought battles between team members which saw their training and competitive spirits come to the fore finishing with sprints up the famous Outlaw orange carpet right to the finish line!
It was then the turn of fifteen of the BTC members to take on the challenge of the Outlaw Half Holkham triathlon course on the Sunday. Eleven were attempting to complete the full distance, with two teams of three taking part as Relay teams. The scenic course consists of a 1.2mile swim in the lake, a 56miles undulating bike course around the roads of Norfolk, and finishes with an unenviable 13.1mile run around the grounds.
The bad weather which had been forecast to threaten on the Sunday held off, and the first swimmers set off in the morning sun just before 6am. Due to social distancing restrictions everyone entered the water in a rolling start with the last of the teams finally entering the water after 7am.
After the staggered starts of over 1500 participants the leaders were soon re-entering transition after their bike to take on the undulating run course around the grounds of Holkham Hall. With the run course being three laps, there were plenty of opportunities for supporters to be able to cheer the competitors on, which was much needed on this hot muggy day.
First home for BTC was Tom in a time of 4hrs 23mins which earned him 3rd in his 25-29 age group category.
BTC Junior member Rosie Ladds also competed in the Junior Triathlon at Derby, in which she came 9th girl in the TriStar1 age group.

Derby Junior Triathlon
Rosie Ladds 9th girl 23rd TriStar1
Nottingham Outlaw Half & Future, Lakemans and Malory Park.
Boston Triathlon members travelled across the UK last weekend to compete in several organised events.
Organised by OSB Events, the Nottingham Outlaw weekend combines junior racing on the Saturday in the Future Outlaw race series, with the Middle-distance Nottingham Half Outlaw triathlon on the Sunday. Located at the National Water Sports centre in Holme Pierrepont and now it its 9 year it has become one of the must-do events for athletes of all ability levels.
Open to children from age 4 to 16 the Future Outlaw running events cover either a 1.2mile or 2.4mile course around the main regatta lake. First up to race on the Saturday were three junior members from Boston Tri.
Freya Wheeler and Rosie Ladds took part in the Mini race of 1.2miles. It was a close finish to the end, with Freya taking 7th place in a field of 44 children, and Rosie finishing close behind in 8th place even though she lost her trainer on the last 100metres to the finish line!
Not to be out done by her little sister’s effort, Willow Wheeler then went on to run in the 2.4miles Junior race where she gave everything she had to take 7th place in a field of 32 participants.
It was then the turn of seven of the BTC members to take on the Outlaw Half Nottingham triathlon course on the Sunday. The fast, scenic course consists of a 1.2mile swim in the main regatta lake, a 55.2miles undulating bike course, and finishes with 13.1mile run around the lake and grounds.
The event gives people the opportunity to race alongside Elite athletes, as was the case on Sunday when Triathlon legend Tom Don took on the course and didn’t disappoint with a 3rd place finish.
The weather conditions were breezy and cool when the participants were preparing to enter the water. First off was Tom Sargent closely followed by Katie Ball and Matt Purbrick. Due to social distancing restrictions everyone entered the water in a rolling start off the piers, so it wasn’t long before the remaining members of Alan Wheeler, Andy Cole, Martin Jessop and Zoe Ward were all in the water and away before 7am.
After the staggered starts of over 1200 participants the leaders were soon re-entering transition after their bike to take on the undulating run course around the grounds of the National Water Sports Centre.
The rain which had been forecast throughout the day held off until after lunch, so conditions were ideal to run the half marathon distance.
First home for BTC was Tom in a time of 4hrs 35mins which earned him 6th in his 25-29 age group category. Katie Ball also obtained a top ten finish in her own category, finishing 8th in the 30-34 females.
Tom Sargent 4:35:43 6th 25-29m, 81st overall
Matt Purbrick 4:46:48 18th 30-34m, 137th overall
Alan Wheeler 5:10:06 39th 45-49m, 314th overall
Katie Ball 5:15:58 8th 30-34f, 379th overall
Andy Cole 5:23:04 60th 45-49m, 438th overall
Zoe Ward 6:31:38 27th 40-44f, 1016 overall
Martin Jessop 6:56:30 138th 50-54m, 1120 overall
Over in Keswick BTC member Beth Wilmot was competing in the Lakemans Middle distance triathlon.
Set in the scenic surroundings of the Lake District, the Lakemans middle and full distance events are not to be underestimated for their challenging courses and terrain.
The Lakemans 1.2mile swim is in one of the Lake Districts most scenic lakes, Derwent Water. The 56mile bike route takes competitors along the side of the lakes where they get view scenery of mountains on one side and sea on the other. The 13.1mile run then consists of 4 laps of a scenic course around the countryside and into the local town of Keswick.
In a field of 154 women Beth took an amazing 2nd place, 1st in her age category with a time of 4hrs 49mins.
Beth Wilmot 4:49:55 1st 40-44f, 29th overall.
Another BTC junior was also racing over at Mallory Park Race circuit in Leicestershire at the Race Rapid Children’s triathlon. An event which forms part of the East Midlands Junior Championships.
Tegan Phillips competed in the TriStar 3 age category which consisted of a 400metre open water swim in the onsite lake, a 7.5km bike around the race circuit, finished off by a 2.4km run.
The 5 lap smooth bike course can lead to some fast finishing times, and Tegan gave it her all to finish in 22nd position in the TriStar female category.

Boston Triathlon Club dominate in North Lincs Triathlon!
After the long wait athletes have had to be able to take part in races again, this weekend saw six of Boston Triathlon Club members take on the Keyo Brigg Bomber Standard distance triathlon.

The fast course and perfect weather conditions resulted in some outstanding performances and BTC members completely dominating the standings.

Other achievements across the six athletes included the fastest swim and bike times of the day, Senior Male winner, Veteran Male winner and Veteran Female winner. |

We are hoping that training starts very soon - The current guidance states that open air sports can start again on 29th March 2021 and indoor sports will follow a few weeks later on 12th April - See below for information on specific training.
Open Road Rides: It is our intention to offer open road rides from Tuesday 6th April and weekly on Tuesday evenings thereafter. They will initially be designed to help you develop confidence on the open road after a long period of no cycling - depending on the advice and COVID requirements numbers may be restricted. Once numbers becomes clear we will update you. You will need to book onto these via ClubSpark so we can track & trace!
Open Water: I am very pleased to be able to say that we are teaming up with JustWake at Tattershall Lakes again to bring you another year of safe Open Water Swimming. We will be swimming Wednesdays 17:00 - 19:00 and Sundays 08:00 - 10:00. You can sign onto these sessions by clicking here. I will release further guidance via a video brief sometime before the first swim which will answer any questions you might have.
Thursday Track: Currently our first planned track session will take place on 15th April. We will open booking for this nearer the time.
Friday Swimming: Our first swim back should be 16th April - We will initially be able to offer coached sessions to Junior members only - however we will continue to book the pool for two hours, so that adults will be able to swim from 19:00 - 20:00 (like we did before) in an uncoached session. Currently adult sessions can be coached indoors from 17th May.
Junior Squad: Our first Junior squad session at PRSA should take place on 17th April @ 09:00. Once this is confirmed with the venue we will open bookings on ClubSpark.

Tuesday 15th June - 16:00 - 20:00: We have booked the track so that we can practice our bike skills in this awesome training event.
Juniors: 1.8k bike, 800m run.
Adults: 8.6k bike, 2.4k run.
GoTri's
Although we need to confirm the dates we are intending on holding a GoTri at PRSA again. These are great for Juniors & Adults and offer a safe environment for you to try Triathlon and get a feel for the big day.
Aquathlons
We are exploring opportunities to bring you our very own club Aquathlon series! This will be super exciting and we will bring you more on this when dates are confirmed and signed off.
Triathlon
Maybe, just maybe we will bring you our very own club triathlon.. Again we are waiting for the dates to be signed off!
