As always this is a fantastic event made for everyone. The atmosphere got me hooked to Tri last year and love it since.

On a side note, i feel like the lanes to come in transition from the swim and the bike could be clearer. In fact, I think only one lane would be just as good.
As I was coming in from the bike, I entered the swim lane and got told that it was the wrong one. Had to turn around and enter the bike lane that leads to the exact same entrance.
If I have to be knitpicking, this is what I would say. To make it clearer or explain it at the race briefing.
I’ll still be there next year!

I personally struggled with running over the uneven terrain.

It was my first triathlon and I found everyone really helpful and supportive. Lovely atmosphere.

Congratulations on your first triathlon, I hope it is the first of many.

Best event for miles around

This event runs looks like it runs itself because the team have everything covered.
I’m sure all the hard work is done behind the scenes by a really passionate team. This comes across with the delivery of a really slick event that has been built with year on year experience.

Wonderful local Triathlon

This is one of those races that brings the local Tri Community together.

In fact without this race the triathlon community in the area wouldn’t be as strong as it is.

Brigg Sprint is for so many been their first triathlon and it keeps bringing people back time after time.

So good to see it sell out this year, highlighting that things really are getting back post covid.

A great addition this year adding an extra loop on the run to take it past the 5k mark meaning that this race earns to title of being a Sprint distance Triathlon.

First timer

This was my first attempt at a sprint Triathalon. Found the whole event to be brilliantly organised and routes easy to follow. Who knows I may even do it all again in 2027

Thomas Wilson

Amazing event, very well organised

This is an absolutely fantastic event, so well organised and run. The only change I would put forward would be about the run route as it’s tight and not very good underfoot. The standard and late sprint at brigg use the pathway next to the canal, is there any logistical reason that prevents this?

Reviewed using Eventrac, May 2025
Organiser comment:

Thanks for your comments. We currently choose not to have our run course along the river bank due to the number of road crossings, petrol station, supermarket entrance, that have to be negotiated to get there and back. Each would require a Marshall to make it safe, therefore at this time we feel the safer option is the current route although not perfect and we are looking to improve on the first section across the field.

Sharon Wilkinson

Very helpful staff and marshals

I was late for registration and the staff went above and beyond to help me. Thank you

Good atmosphere

Run route wasn’t great, but I understand the issues you have by trying to keep it majority off road.

Reviewed using Eventrac, May 2025
Organiser comment:

Thanks for your review. We are constantly reviewing the run course, and at this time we feel this is the safest option rather than running towards Brigg town, however we are aware that it isn't perfect and we are exploring ways to improve it while still keeping it safe.

Difficult to better an event like this

Jacqueline Ross

Easy route and very friendly

The Marshall in the transition area need to ensure bikes are racked in correct place as someone racked in my place which delayed me in my T2.
