Overview

We’re delighted to say we are hosting the British Universities Sprint & Mixed Relay Championships in 2025 & 2026

The swim will use the amazing Olympic legacy 50m pool at Mount Kelly. It’s not just 50 metres long but has three metre lanes!

The bike is on quiet rolling roads & the final run uses the old railway line.

For the Mixed Relay we’re using an out and back bike course on the first part of the main bike course.

All entries will be via the BUCs website & entries. Entries are now open and close on 15th April.

Frequently Asked Questions
Parking

There are two areas to park. The first is just past the school (approaching from Tavistock) on the right. We recommend you download the free what3words app & use this link to take you there – https://w3w.co/sudden.fills.lend
The second area is the prep school car park. It’s just a few minutes walk from transition. However it is also a few minutes drive as you have to go the long way round by car. The prep school operates a one way system there so make sure you enter by the rear entrance at what3words location – https://w3w.co/stones.above.hears

Please do not park in the small swimming pool car park as it’s reserved for marshals who will be out on the bike & run courses.

Event Gallery

Absolutely the best. Professional run event, even better than the "bigger" events. So welcoming, knowledgable marshals, nice bling, and results up within a minute of crossing the line. Many could learn from these guys!
