This June will see the inception of a brand new three stage, three day triathlon taking part in the heart of Henley on Thames, west of London.
The Henley Highwayman will take place over 5-7 June and is designed to cater for all levels of participation and personal challenge with competitors able to choose from three different distances for each of the three disciplines of swim, bike and run.
At 20:00 GMT on 15 January, organisers Jeremy Laming and Phil Harrison (from Henley Swim and Southern Sportive respectively) and principal sponsor, Savills, will officially launch the event at the Old Fire Station Gallery in central Henley.
Over an informal evening of drinks and nibbles, detailed information on the swim, cycle and run courses will be provided, along with entry details, sponsorship and charity opportunities, marshalling and opportunities for local businesses.
Event co-founder, Jeremy Laming, said “Being a Henley local and having delivered countless events in the Henley area, I am very proud to work with Phil and Southern Sportive to create this new event. At our heart, Phil and I are events organisers, and have used all our collective knowledge to put together what we think will be an inspirational event.”
Richard Maby, Head of Savills Henley Lettings, said “The flexible distance and discipline idea provides an opportunity for many people to participate, perhaps raising money for charity, and to enjoy either a relaxed or more competitive weekend of well organised sport. We hope to see our clients, employees, friends and contacts join the motivated people of Henley and the wider surrounding areas have a fun and challenging weekend and to tell more people about it on the 15 January.”
