Tonights British Triathlon Annual Awards Dinner at the Hilton Hotel, East Midlands Airport, celebrates those members who have achieved outstanding results in both the elite and Age Group categories, and recognises those who have impacted the sport through officiating and volunteering.

The Awards Dinner is an opportunity for Age Group and elite athletes to rub shoulders and recognise exceptional performance at every level. It also gives athletes the chance to acknowledge and applaud the efforts of those behind the scenes: the volunteers, coaches and officials, who give up many hours of their time to put on events, without which there would not be a sport.

The evening is due to start with drinks at 7pm followed by dinner and award presentations. Guest speaker Simon Lessing will close the event and be taking questions from the assembled guests.

I’ve always thought about attending one of these functions, but never actually managed to get there. If any of you are heading there for the evening I’d like to hear from you. Just leave me a comment with how you thought it went. It might get me motivated to get there next year!
