Isle of Bute Triathlon

Race Date: 10 May 2026

Thanks to Grant Kennedy for this race report: On Sunday I got around the Isle of Bute Triathlon okay and enjoyed it. The event is very inclusive for all abilities and so great for a first timer like myself. 750m swim in pool, 20km bike and then 5km run. The bike route is especially scenic. 52nd out of 100, and 7th in the super vet category!!! 1 hour 32 mins. 19:10 swim, 46:31 bike and 22:28 run. I did the run in a Strathearn vest, but no pics available yet. Only the issue was a touch of cramp on the bike and I had to dismount and walk it off. Lucky it eased off.
