Unlike last year, the selection process will be a one-off race. This will not only allow us to see how you perform in a single qualifying race like you will encounter if you continue in the pathway through Junior, U23 and senior.
It will also allow us to see how you perform in the same format, open water and at the venue where IRCs will be held.
Finally, because it is held at the IRC venue, this race will likely attract athletes from around the country, so it will be useful to see how we stack up at this early stage.
*Location and dates of training days TBC.
Other relevant information such as swim (200m) and run (1500) times and previous performances from multisport events can be submitted for consideration, please also provide the link for these results. If the times are not on Power10 (including Park Run) or the British Swimming tables, then an email from your junior coach to verify the submitted times will be accepted.
