CHALLENGERS are welcome for the Upton Triathlon on Saturday, July 14.
It will involve a downstream open-water swim in the River Severn, a cycle ride along local lanes and a run across farmland and along the riverbank.
Every year over 10 per cent of the 500 competitors are first-timers at the family-friendly event which starts at 12.30pm.
There is also a kids’ one-kilometre fun run in the morning and a 100-metre toddle for under fives.
