12th Midnight Man 10th/11th August 2024
Entries are now live for the 2024 Midnight Man.
Please note we are now limited to 250 entries.
Everything has now changed for non-BTF members. If you need a day license you will now be directed to the British Triathlon website to buy one. This is because they need you name and address for the day license.
We are pleased to say that there is no price increase at the moment. Sorry but this may change after Christmas. We try our hardest to keep our entry fees the lowest in the UK, but every part of our race is going up in price.
So whatever happens, we will still be the best Value full and half-distance race in the UK.
To keep the price of the race so low we need almost to fill the race to cover the cost of running the event. If you can help us promote the race in any way that would be great
When I came up with this crazy idea 12 years ago I never thought we would make it to our 12th Year. It not been easy but its been fun and I have had the opportunity to meet some great people over this time.
All races will start at 6.00 pm and most competitors should be finished before the swimmers are out of the lake for the Midnight Man.
We now also have real toilets and showers on site.
We also have a tea wagon all night as well.

Important race information below for this years race.
- All races will start at 6pm.
- Wet suits are optional. I would sooner everyone wear one but we can’t make you. If it goes over 22 degrees for the sprint and Standard.
- For the half and and full if it goes over 24.6 degrees it becomes a no wet suit swim.
- We do also now a tea wagon coming along. Not sure how long they will stay for as its a long night.
Remember to bring the following to make the race easer for you
1 Lights on your bike for the Full and half.
2 Speedo so you can keep an eye on how far you cycled. There will be a lap counter on the bike and run
3 There will be a large TV screen by the finish area so you can double check if you lose count.
4 You will be given a Aid bag at registration to put anything you need during the bike or run. This will by the feed station in number order. It gets very cold at night as we are close to 2 lakes and the river.
5 We will be giving out HIGH5 on the bike in 750m water bottles and water.
