The Banbury Triathlon, a cornerstone event that has been inspiring athletes of all levels, is set to offer a unique experience this year. Participants will have the privilege of receiving their medals from none other than Rosie Weston, the professional triathlete who set a blistering course record last year with a time of one hour, six minutes, and six seconds.

Rosie Weston, whose journey in triathlon began back in 2013 inspired by her peers at the Banbury Swimming Club, has not only achieved success on the international stage but also embodies the spirit of the sport. Turning professional in 2021, Rosie's progression from a novice to a record-setting athlete is nothing short of inspiring. This year, she steps into a new role, aiming to support and motivate participants by handing out medals at the finish line.

"The energy at the finish line is always electric - it can be quite emotional," Rosie shared, reflecting on her new role at the event. Her presence is expected to add an extra layer of excitement and encouragement for the athletes as they push through to the finish.

The Banbury Triathlon is more than just a race; it's a "grassroots" event that encourages individuals to step outside their comfort zones and embrace a personal challenge. It's designed to be accessible, welcoming athletes of all abilities to participate in a supportive and inspiring environment.

For those looking to be part of this exhilarating event, organizers are offering early bird prices until January 31. It's a fantastic opportunity for both seasoned triathletes and first-timers to experience the camaraderie and challenge of a triathlon, with the added bonus of meeting a professional athlete like Rosie Weston.

Whether you're aiming to set a personal best or simply looking to finish, the Banbury Triathlon promises to be a rewarding experience, celebrating the perseverance, dedication, and spirit of its participants. So, lace up your shoes, gear up your bike, and dive into the swim - the Banbury Triathlon is calling!
