This is a virtual race that competitors can take part in on any 3 consecutive days in August between the 1st and the 20th. There are race options for a duathlon or triathlon and various distances based upon age. We have also included for team entries and parents. All competitors will receive a medal for taking part.
Rules

Only one stage to be completed on a single day. Distances are longer than normal for age group so must be competed on separate days.

The triathlon swim must take place at an official open water venue.
We strongly recommend that competitors are accompanied by an adult during race stage for safety.
Team entries are a maximum of 4 people with no more than 1 team member from each age group. Stage times will be added together to give team result.
