The swim will be an open water affair in the beautiful blue waters of Weymouth Bay.

Approximately 100 competitors at a time will start the race 15 minutes apart.

Open sea swim in Weymouth Bay in a 1 loop course around marker buoys.

We advise you to practice sea swimming before the event.

Safety craft will be in position and lifeguards are instructed to remove any competitor from the water who they consider in danger for whatever reason.

Bike

The rolling cycle course will be a fast one for all three events with the route taking in some breathtaking scenery.

The bike route for the Middle course will be taking place on mainly long flattish (as best we can do in Dorset!) roads.

Extreme care at the start of the cycle section and on descents into Weymouth. No heroes please!

Also, on return to Preston Beach traffic lights do not overtake cars near the finish.

Run

The run will be a short blast around the Lodmoor nature reserve for the Sprint and Classic and just ever so slightly longer for the Middle.

The course comprises four laps of Weymouth and Lodmoor. Finishing in the Weymouth College Car Park at the rear of Lodmoor Country Park.

There will be water/hydration stations approximately every 2/3 miles.
