Torbay Mixed Relay Triathlon

GPX route

The route is displayed on the map above.

Overview

The Torbay Triathlon Relay takes place at the Torbay Velopark, offering a smooth, traffic-free course that’s ideal for fast and fun racing.

The swim takes place in the Velopark’s indoor pool, with just two swimmers per lane to keep things calm and controlled. After a short run to transition, you’ll head out on the bike course, completing multiple laps of the purpose-built tarmac circuit — flat, flowing and perfect for maintaining speed. The final run follows the park’s paths and open spaces, providing great visibility for supporters and plenty of atmosphere at the handover zone.

Expect a safe, well-organised and spectator-friendly course, designed to deliver exciting, close racing for both new and experienced triathletes.

Love this relay event. Do another one this year! Mark W

Great fun, well organised. We were at the slower end of the field but still encouraged and made to feel welcome. Thoroughly recommend. Sarah W

The marshals particularly stood out for me. They were very engaging and supportive. It made the event even more enjoyable. I entered the team event with my family. The course enabled my son and girlfriend to get great times and my wife and I to enjoy a slower pace. No pressure from others and some great memories. Peter B

Good fun and although well ran you didn’t feel like it was too serious . Some Ironman events o find a little severe rather than applying some common sense . This event did just that , safety is everything but sometimes if you break the odd rule like putting your shoes on before your helmet really doesn’t matter 😂😂great fun will be back next year. Paul G

Sportiva Events is doing its best to minimise the environmental impact of this event. Here are a few of their initiatives:

Sustainability

• Trees not tees

  For all events which include a t-shirt, there is the option to plant a tree instead through a partnership with Treesnottees

• Avoid single-use plastics

  New paper cups have been sourced to be fully recycled back into high-grade paper.

• Optional medals

  Lots of competitors are not interested in finishers' medals so they are now optional. A £2 charity donation is made for every medal not selected.

• Swim hats on request

  Swim hats are provided for open water swimming events as they help the water safety teams keep track of swimmers. However for all pool events, swim hats are now on request to reduce wastage.

• Reuseable zip ties and recycling

  Reusable zip ties are used and all rubbish is sorted for recycling after the event.

• Reducing car use

  At the Burrator 10K running race those who commit to walking or cycling to the event get £5 discount.
