The Weymouth Middle Distance Triathlon – regional winner in the Triathlon England Annual Awards

'Club Event of the year'

We as a club are really passionate about this event and can’t wait to share it with you – If your club want to use it as a club championship then contact Mark and the team and we can assist you with whatever you need.

The Details

The Weymouth Triathlon event will consist of three separate races, a sprint, a classic and a 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 500 meters of the very secure transition area, not to mention the beach. There are plenty of facilities, café, toilets and parking all within a couple of hundred 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 race diary.

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

SWIM - Starting at 08:00 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.

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

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 finish.

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 half.

All three events will have awards for the top three males and females and the top age grouper in each category.

Race mementos will be given to all who finish the race.
