STRADBROKE TRIATHLON
19th May 2024
EVENT OVERVIEW
Stradbroke triathlon is the perfect introduction for those new to the sport as well as for more experienced competitors looking for an early season race.
The triathlons include a short pool swim, cycle on some nice rural lanes and an off-road run to finish.
We also offer an Aquabike with the same swim and bike, but without the pain of that final run!
This event is suitable for those 15+ (age taken as it would be on 31st December in the year of the event).
Medals for all finishers. Prizes for the top 3 Open/Female category as well as Age Group winners (Aquabike prizes for 1st place Open/Female finishers).

Swim (160m)
Bike (17km)
Run (3km)
You will swim 2 lengths in the first lane (clockwise, keeping to the left of the lane) before dipping under the lane rope to move into the next lane. You will continue this process until reaching the far side of the pool. Exit the water and move into transition. Click here for the swim route.
The bike leg will take you out on a single 17km loop around the gently rolling Suffolk lanes. The roads are very quiet and scenic. There will be route signs and marshals in place to guide you as you tick off the kilometres. Click here for the cycling route.
The run is a 2-lap affair covering a flat 3km's. It uses a track encircling the playing fields adjacent to Stradbroke Swim & Fitness Centre and trails through surrounding arable fields (no access to the latter prior to race day). Signage and marshals will be in place to guide you.
