About OUTriC

Oxford University Triathlon Club was founded in 2000. Since 2003, we have raced Cambridge annually at the Varsity Triathlon in May - a sprint style triathlon over 750m Swim, 20km Cycle and 5km Run.

​

We also race the Varsity Duathlon in February, involving a 5km Run, 20km Cycle and 2.5km Run.

​

Both events are open to experienced triathletes and novices alike. The Blues teams are not selected prior to racing - they are made up from the top 6 finishers for each category from each university on the day.  The Seconds are made up from those who place seventh, eighth and ninth.

Those who place in the Blues team at Varsity Triathlon are eligible for a Half-Blue award from the University. Certain athletes can achieve a Full Blue subject to discretionary criteria.
