New Outlaw X set for September

The organisers of the multiple-220 Triathlon Award winning Outlaw have announced a new middle-distance event for September 2019.

The Outlaw X will celebrate the tenth anniversary year of Outlaw (pictured) and will take place in the grounds of Thoresby Hall in north Nottinghamshire on Sunday 22 September. The event, say the organisers, will provide triathletes of all abilities with an opportunity to finish the 2019 racing season on a high.

Following a 1.9km swim in Thoresby Lake, athletes will embark on a 90km ride through the Nottinghamshire countryside before completing the journey with a 21.1km run through 1,000 acres of English countryside within the grounds of the historic Thoresby Hall.

Once the racing is complete and the last athlete has been cheered across the line in front of the Grade 1 listed 19^th century hall, the special Outlaw X Awards Party will begin, which will look back on 10 years of the Outlaw and celebrate the special individuals who have been integral to its journey.

The Outlaw Half Nottingham and full Outlaw Nottingham have already sold out, so the organisers are expecting demand for entries to be high. You can pre-register here: www.outlawtriathlon.com/outlaw-x-pre-register/
