I’ve been with Do3 for 11 months now. After doing my first 70.3 1 year ago I took on the journey of a Full Ironman. David and Corinne have been amazing in not only doing my programming but teaching me about what’s realistic, training zones to train in, power (watts), swims sets and all the fancy dynamics. After breaking my jaw 6 weeks prior to the event I still managed to do it in 10:27. They look at how much time I have and help me still balance life with training which is very difficult! Under their coaching I just redid the same 70.3 from 12 months ago and went from 4:53 to 4:32. Very pleased and would highly recommend them. All my coaching has been via zoom too since I live in Australia and they are in England.

Wow! What an amazing place! The location is stunning, the water is so clean. The organisation is second to none, warm welcome, clear instructions, excellent safety plans in place.
We went as a group, some first time ever open water swim. The course was clearly marked with huge buoys, help getting in and out the water was available and we all just loved every minute. It's not local to us but we are definately going again! Many thanks to all involved espcially the tea and cakes bit... 😊

This is a friendly, accessible and lovely place for an open water swim. Good supervision and a lot of breast swimmers chatting as they go round as well as people (like me and my wife) who are training for a triathlon. It was an ok amount of other swimmers. Plenty of room. It's three times round the 500m course for the standard triathlon distance. Water Visibility is similar to triathlons (ie no visibility in the water - can just about see my hands) and that is good. Water quality good. Temperature 19 degrees and above is fine.

This is definitely one tick off my bucket list! I love swimming in an outside pool but had never in my 62 years swam in a lake. I was pretty nervous, mainly because you can’t see what’s beneath you and I had a fear of being wrapped up in reeds or something unknown brushing past me! 😱. I need not have worried at all! I really enjoyed my swim in between the fast triathletes and more leisurely swimmers I found my pace. Braved putting my face and head into the cool but clean water and swam a few times around the bouys. Everyone there was super helpful and made sure I was comfortable before going in and spotters in kayaks checked on me. Loved it. Highly recommend. Feel the fear and do it anyway. Glad I did. 😊

Compton Verney sprint triathlon 2024 was a really enjoyable event, with a relexed atmosphere. The swim was my only complaint of the day, in that it was only 400m (super sprint distance) instead of 750m, which you would normally find in an open water race. However the lake had superb swim conditions on the day. The bike course was very well signposted and Marshalled, It was challenging, but also has the potential to be a very fast course. (Fitness levels was my excuse for lack of speed). The run, challenging course, but fair, I would recommend training the ability to change your paces on the run as there are some potential hazards that you might need to slow down and speed up for, however, these areas are very well marshalled. Overall, I really enjoyed the race if they changed the swim distance to 750m, I think I’d book it now for 2025.

A superb event. Entry and registration was really easy and straight forward but that was the only thing that was easy! A great venue for the swim, a beautiful lake in a great setting, the only part of the race that was flat! The bike was a really challenging course, some tough climbs but some fast downhills in beautiful Warwickshire countryside. Pittern Hill is a real sting in the tail! Finally the run, two laps of ups and downs. The organisation and the volunteers were brilliant giving you that extra cheer when you really needed it! I would definitely recommend if you’re up for the challenge! My legs have just about recovered, time to sign up for next year! Thank you!

I am a seasoned triathlete & I was very impressed by this event. In the Sprint distance, great bike course with some killer hills, same for the run. My only comment would shame the swim was only 400 & not the full 750m. I would also encourage the Do3 to put on a standard distance, it would sell. Oh and 2pm presentation for the sprint is too late for most, even if the MD was still running. But all in all a highly commended event, would do again if a full swim or standard distance was available 🙌🏻

Good value to money if you need to feel secured. Lots of people watching you when in water.
Personally don't need that level of guard, but I get it, there are people who do need that.
Only reason it is not 5 star is the price as I would do well without any lifeguards. This is very subjective point of view.

Really friendly welcome for a first timer with good set of instructions and checking as to understanding of water safety etc. Plenty of spotters on the banks and kayakers in the water should anything go amiss. In the water it is relatively warm compared to other venues, feels incredibly clean and the course is marked out by very clear yellow inflatables. Thank you Do3, I've already purchased the five swim pass and can't wait to come back!

I was very impressed by how well organized the event was from the welcoming by booking in procedure , to the follow the fairy light glade to the water and to all the lovely event people there last night who the experience so enjoyable ,particularly appreciated the hot chocolate and cake .
On a more serious note the water safety was clearly very high and very much appreciated how did significant and difficult that can be to organise .

Lovely venue, lovely people and great vegan cake selection. I'm sorry to write that there were just too many weeds for a productive swim for me.

Do3 Compton Verney triathlon. A feast of swim, bike, run, fun. In a beautiful setting the course is both picturesque and rewarding. Such a friendly triathlon with encouraging spectators, lovely marshals and a brilliant down hill finish. Tri it… Love it.

I have completed the intro to Front crawl course and since then practiced and practiced, then into open water sessions with DO3 at Compton Verney and yesterday completed the DO3 sprint triathlon. I have always been encouraged and supported really well by the DO3 team who are always very knowledgeable and professional as well as approachable.
Cannot be happier in my achievement this year as a ‘Vintage’ triathlete.

I recently completed the middle distance triathlon and loved the course. The lake swim was great, bike course scenic and challenging and the run along quiet country roads and trails. The Marshalls were super friendly and encouraging, I really enjoyed the whole organised experience.

I did the Compton Verney Sprint triathlon organnised by Do3 yesterday (for the 3rd year in a row because its an Ace event!) and it was great!Really well organised, well informed race briefing and athletes guide prior to event, friendly helpful marshals. Nice bike route, clearly signed. Really scenic run, mostly off road through woodland and fields, challenging but enjoyable. Great atmosphere.

I’ve just completed the Improve Your Front Crawl course and found it very beneficial. Dave and Corinne were really friendly and knowledgeable. We got filmed swimming in our first and last session which was insightful and it was great to see an improvement in my technique following their feedback. Highly recommend!

I was in a bit of a bind when I needed someone at very short notice to coach my children ahead of an open water swim. Dave was excellent and found us a lovely coach, Anita. Anita was clearly a very experienced coach and my kids loved her. She talked them through everything and they said she was kind, helpful, informative and friendly. They were coached during a regular open water swim session which was clearly well organised with great safety measures in place. The lovely hot chocolate and cake after the swim (which was very reasonably priced I might add) was an added bonus! We will definitely back in the future, for not only coaching but hopefully to participate in an open water swim session.

Took part in the 'Introduction to open water swimming' course this morning, at Compton Verney. Anita was fantastic during the session and in answering questions prior to today. I've not swam in years but by the end of todays session I had done 4 widths of the lake, at a pace I felt comfortable at. I've already booked my next five sessions. The whole setup is extremely professional and I felt safe and reassured - thoroughly recommended.

Loved my first swim at Compton Verney. Such a welcoming team, very safely run and even when I stopped to adjust my goggles for a few seconds, one of the canoes came up to me and checked I was ok. Clean and beautiful lake. Did get a bit of pond weed hair but not for long! Definitely for all abilities and the cakes afterwards are amazing. Thank you. I'll definitely be back.

I've been to a few Do3 sessions now, a mixture of open water and upskilling sessions. Even as a swimmer in a past life, I've learnt a lot and have enjoyed each session, and I felt less nervous about trying open water for the first time! I felt safe and well looked after throughout the open water intro session and when I went solo. Check-in at Compton Verney is super easy and there’s even cake and coffee to be enjoyed at the end. Overall, if you’re thinking about joining in you won’t regret it.
