With the gorgeous, warm weather forecast for this weekend through to next week, we need to share a crucial update to keep our four-legged friends safe. 🐾⁣
⁣
We are enforcing a strict 𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐨𝐠𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 for the upcoming hot weather. The quarry stone absorbs heat rapidly and will become scorching hot underfoot, posing a severe risk of burning your dog's paws, and 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐨 𝐜𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐛𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐬.
⁣
⚠️ 𝐏𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞: For the safety of your pets, 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐟𝐟 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚 𝐝𝐨𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞. This is a 𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐨-𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲, which unfortunately includes all assistance and support dogs for this specific period due to both the ground and air temperature.⁣
⁣
Please leave your pups safe and cool at home so you can enjoy your time on the water stress-free! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. 🙏

𝐑𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝟐 𝐢𝐬 𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭! ⏱️🔥

We are back at Cromhall Quarry tonight for the second round of The Lake Triathlon Series 2026!

A lot of midweek training events can feel a bit informal—but we don't believe in cutting corners. Whether you're an elite athlete chasing a series podium or a first-timer tackling your very first multisport event, you deserve a professional race experience.

Unlike many other midweek events, we provide live, instant chip-timing results for athletes of all levels. Therefore, spectators at home or on the lakeside can track every swim split, transition, and run lap the second they happen:

18:50 – 🏁 Male Start
18:55 – 🏁 Female Start

Tracking a mate or checking the leaderboard from the sidelines? Check out the results here:
