GET on your bike, dig out your running shoes and squeeze into your swimming gear — the Milltown Sprint Triathlon is open for 2016 entries.
Back for a second year, the triathlon will see participants swim 400m, cycle 20k and complete a 5k run through Saddleworth on April 24.
Discounts are available for anyone who signs up before January 31. Entry is also possible for other local events - a 7k run on May 15, a 10k on June 16 and the gruelling Milltown to Moors half marathon on October 16. There is a discount for runners taking part in all three running events, an offer open until the 7k is full.
