In reference to the recent Blackwater history post we talked about on Tuesday, all competitors to both events will awarded with not only a finishers T-shirt and bottle-opener medal, but this year competitors will also be handed a low alcohol beer #theghostship by @adnams to drink alongside our famous local delicacy - The Native Oyster provided by our friends at the @westmerseaoysterbar An Oyster and a beer is one other way of showing youโre a true Islander!!

Mersea Island is located on the River Blackwater in Essex amongst the salt water marshes. Besides from having a pretty rad name, the Blackwater is rich in history, fame and charm. The Blackwater is well known for @maldonsalt and West Mersea Native Oyster. Mersea island has seen many famous chefs cook here including @jamieoliver and @ricksteinrestaurants. Known for itโs seafood, the Blackwater also births the oldest recorded working fishing boat that still competes in the annual oyster dredging match! The islandโs history also dates back to Viking and Roman times! We are proud to call Mersea Island and the River Blackwater home and excited to see triathletes from all over come and compete here. Many nations, tribes, soldiers and smugglers have landed on our shores... Our question to you is, โCould You Conquer The Islander?!โ #theislander2019 #middledistancetriathlon #sprinttriathlon #triathlon #ironmantraining @brittri @zone3official @triathlonloversmagazine @220triathlon

Mersea Island has hosted a Sprint Triathlon for 6 years running. It started due to Josh realising Mersea was not only an idyllic setting but perfectly formed toย provide a unique arena to stage such…
Yourย adventure starts when you arrive atย Mersea Island. You approach Mersea by a causeway from the mainland – yes, the island gets cut off at high tide! Atย just eight miles square….
