Swim
The swim is based out of the competition pool in Woking. Operated by Freedom leisure, this 6 lane competition pool provides the perfect environment for our event complete with a viewing gallery for spectators/supporters. Your race day will see you start in the pool and completing a snake style swim. For those swimming longer than 300m you will swim your first 150m in lane 1 then snake to the end of the pool. Upon sign up, all entrants will be asked for the time they will take in the swim. This will be used to seed the start order.
Bike
On exiting transition you’ll mount your bike and head out of the leisure centre. The open-road course will see you head out of Woking towards Mayford where you will complete laps (1 for SuperSprint, 2 for Sprint) of our circuit between Mayford and Jacobs Well. Other than a few cheeky inclines the course is flat and fast. On completion of your laps, you'll head right at the junction and return to transition.
Run
The run is based in Woking Park and features a fast course within the park. The course used is 80% tarmac and 20% trail along hard packed good paths. As a lapped course, you’ll pass through the central part of the park several times presenting a great opportunity for support from friends, family and club matters. Junior Aquathlon athletes use variations of this route.
