What We Do

Welcome to Avon Valley Triathletes, the home of the multi-sport arm of Avon Valley Runners.  Whether you’re a multiple Ironman, or thinking of your first duathlon, this is the place for you.

If you’re a member of AVR, you’re automatically a member of AVT at no extra charge. AVT is headed up by Caroline Scott, the Multi-Sport Secretary. Caroline also sits on the AVR Committee and is supported by the AVT working group. You can contact Caroline at avt@avonvalleyrunners.org.uk.

AVT is more than the sum of its parts – we believe being a member of a supportive group with similar interests makes us all better individually. No matter what challenge you’re taking on, you will find encouragement, advice, and very likely someone crazy enough to do it with you.

If you’re at all interested in triathlon, duathlon or any other '-athlon' involving swim, bike or run, come along to one of our regular sessions. All training and social/uncoached sessions are all pinned on the AVT Facebook Page.

Upcoming Races / Events



Any upcoming races or events where you’ll see friendly AVT faces are shared on the Facebook group. AVT work together on special focus events and regularly take part in relays, these are published on the AVT Facebook members page. There is also an AVT league where you can achieve awards in achievements and effort. This is performance based. We take your best result in each of Time Trial, Aquathon, Duathlon, Triathlon and Aquabike, and express it as a percentage. We then average your results across each of the above events. If you did not do an event then you are awarded 100%, lowest score wins!
