Saturday 7th June 2025
For the first time since 2014, we are bringing back the Harwich Olympic distance triathlon.
Race HQ and transition will be on the grass along Lower Marine Parade, next to the oval shelter, in front of the Lighthouse Sports and Social Hub.
Starting with a 1500m sea swim along the Blue Flag beach of Dovercourt Bay, swimming out from Earlhams and along the bay, before going around the iconic lighthouse and heading back to shore. Followed by a 40km bike around the villages surrounding Harwich. Finishing with a fast and flat 10km (made up of two laps) along Harwich promenade.
We are also offering a 2 or 3-person relay option, so you can take part with friends or family, each person doing a different leg and coming together to cross the finish line.
The first wave will be set off at 10:00, with different waves for men and women.
Total Spaces: 120 Individual + 30 Relay Teams
Entry Cost (Individual): £50 (includes BTF day licence)
Entry Cost (Relay): £60 Per Team (includes BTF day licences)
Please note - If a sea swim is too risky on the day due to bad weather, we will revert to a duathlon. No refunds will be possible.
