The WMD Middle 2018
08 July 2018
Entries will open again on 18th September at 10:00 - there will be 25% off until the end of the month.
The Details
This event will consist of three separate races, a sprint, a classic and a (half iron) middle distance triathlon.
With race HQ based at Weymouth College, this is the ideal location for all of the family.
It is close to the Weymouth Sealife Centre and is within 400 meters of the very secure transition area, not to mention the beach. There are plenty of facilities, café, toilets and parking all within 200 meters of your bike. There is something for everyone at this event whether you are taking part or spectating, this one should be a must for your 2018 race diary.
The swim will be an open water affair in the beautiful blue waters of Weymouth Bay.
The rolling cycle course will be a flat’ish (as best we can do in Dorset!) fast one for all three events with the route taking in some breathtaking scenery.
The bike route for the Half Iron course will be taking place on mainly long flatfish roads.
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.
All three events will have awards at the end for the top three males and females and the top age grouper in each category.
Race mementos will be our exclusive and much sought after BustinSkin t’s, custom medals and designer Buff headwear.
All three events will be chip timed by FullOnSport
Free parking all day at Weymouth College – Registration will take place in Transition at GreenHill Tennis Courts.
