Overview

You start with a stunning swim in the clear waters of Blackpool Sands.

Then it’s onto the bike for a circular and picturesque one or two lap bike ride. Unfortunately due to the damage to the Slapton Line road in the January storms, we are unable to use our usual bike route so are using the route we used in 2018, the last time the road was washed away.

You finish with an out & back run up the picturesque Blackpool Valley Road following a stream gently rising up to the turn. By creating a second ‘bike drop’ transition on the other side of the A379 we are able to eliminate the road crossing from the run and also have a left turn back into transition.

Numbers are strictly limited to a total of 320 entries and this event sells out well in advance!

We also have our increasingly popular 750m, 1500m & 3K sea swims on Saturday evening.

There’s also the rare chance to camp on the beach for an additional charge.

Kit Requirements
The triathlon swim normally requires a wetsuit as the water temperature is likely to be around 14C. See our FAQs
