about the orc triathlon
ORC is a combination of the sports clubs run from The Chequers Pub in Laddingford, your transition area and finish for the day, the Otters, Racers and Chasers.
Otters
Our open water swimming club, often seen training in local Leybourne lakes and participating in many events around the country
Racers
The Chequers Racers are Laddingfords premier (and only!) Cycling club. As well as competing in many sportives and training most nights and weekends they annually cycle further afield doing tours of France, Spain and Mallorca.
Chasers
Some have said that our running club was the first to have originated from The Chequers and started a cascade of other clubs. As well as bi-weekly runs, the Chasers often compete in 10k, half marathon and full marathons.
The triathlon seemed a perfect way to raise money for charity and involve all the clubs that us locals are involved in. It's fair to say that the inaugral event in 2013 was such a success, and thoroughly good fun, that we are doing it again.
