ELT is a friendly, inclusive, competitive and fun triathlon club. Being a member has the benefits of meeting others, attending social events, coached activities suited to all abilities, meeting and racing with other clubs, sharing information and support on triathlon and being called a triathlete!
ELT is a welcoming club and we have members with a variety of background and abilities. Our training sessions cater for all levels, from total novices to GB Age Group Competitors. Thanks to our supportive atmosphere, we inspire each other to go that little bit further and achieve our goals.
We train at a variety of locations including Epping Forest, Walthamstow Feel Good Centre, Velopark outside track, Essex road cycling and surrounding areas offering a range of scheduled sessions that cover the three sports: swimming, cycling and running.
East London Triathletes take part in many races throughout the year and have a strong social side to the club. The best way to get to know the club, to see if we are the right club for you, is to sign up for a trial and come along to a training night. Joining ELT includes:
- Organised training sessions in all three disciplines: swim, bike, run
- A range of social activities including an annual Club Awards
Please also see our FAQs for more details about the club.
