The  'Closing ceremony' in Regent's Park

As we move within a week of the event it's really getting exciting here at Eurostar HQ. Our internal competitors have been nipping off to the Serpentine, Hyde Park for lunchtime open water practice, and Chris, who we featured back in an earlier post has even simulated the Tri-City-Athlon, (without the train bit) across the 12 hour period.

We've also had stories one of the competitors who has actually taken swimming lessons to build up their confidence ahead of the Paris morning event, so there really is a spectrum of participants and we wish each and every one of you the best of luck.

Alongside organising an event as unique and challenging as this we have also been organising a 'closing ceremony' for the event which will take place in Regent's Park in the evening.

Now, I can tell you now that Beijing can rest easy, we won't quite be spending the billions that they invested, however we feel that the event will definitely do justice to the nature of the Tri-City-Athlon and really bring to life what will have been a unique and memorable day.
