“This is huge and exciting news for the triathlon, it really marks the event moving to the next level,” says Jenson. “The closures will create a fast flowing course that should be a real thrill for all competitors and spectators. It will be fun to be racing on a street circuit!”

Competitors will start the triathlon with a 200m swim in Markeaton Park lake. They will then swiftly change into cycling gear and head out of the park onto Markeaton Lane on a 10km circular route along Kedleston Road to Five Lamps and around the Cathedral Quarter.
