FAQs:
Q. I'm not 100% sure if I want to join, can I try it out? 
A. Of course, drop us a DM or email and we'd be more than happy to let you come along to some of our sessions to experience the club and see if it's something you might like.
 
Q. Do I need to have done a triathlon before?
A. Not at all! The majority of our members had not done a triathlon before joining. We would recommend you are able to swim, cycle and run, but you do not need to be an expert or very fast in any of the disciplines!
 
Q. I don't have a bike, is this a problem?
A. As you might expect, in a triathlon this would be helpful. However, don't worry if you don't! You can still make the most of our sessions per week without evening owning a bike (including the indoor spin cycling session).
 
Q. I am a competitive triathlete, am I too good for the club?
A. No! To enter BUCS you will need to be part of the club, and also by being in the club you will have access to things like private lanes in the swimming pool which are ideal for a serious triathlete. 
 
Q. Do I have to attend all the sessions on the timetable to be a part of the club?                   
A. Of course not! The club has a do as much as you want, whenever you want to policy! You can do as much or as little training as you want to or have time for and still be a valued member of the club! 
 
If you have any other questions at all, please don't hesitate to DM us on Instagram, or email us!
