The Slough Demos Part 1: A Triathlon History Tour

Written By Ross

This is the first in a series of episodes called The Slough Demos. Mainly about what it was like growing up in Slough in the 1980s as a teenage triathlon nerd.

TSP2: The Speed And The Sweat was about the first triathlon I ever did. In May 1989 in Wokingham. And these episodes will follow on from that. With some prequel stuff too. Part 1 is a running tour of Slough that you can do to get an overview of the triathlon history that exists there.

The inspiration for this episode came from a YouTube video on the Ginger Runner channel. It’s with Ben Gibbard from the band Death Cab For Cutie. And he describes a 46 mile run he did through Seattle visiting famous local music landmarks.

Enjoying learning more about Slough!
