THIS year’s Pendle Triathlon is to take place on Sunday, April 21.

Like last year, event organiser Pendle Leisure Trust is doing its bit to help competitors reach the finishing line.

The Trust has devised an idea to motivate people into preparing and achieving a personal goal with a boot camp style programme that will last from now right up to the competition.

Paul Whittaker, centre manager at West Craven Sports Centre, said: “If you have thought about doing a Triathlon but haven’t known how to prepare for it, then we have the answer with a boot camp-style programme to help you train properly.

“The sessions will include swimming, cycling and running endurance training, strength training, speed training, core stability and hill sessions, to name but a few.”
