Salcombe Brewery Co Sprint Triathlon
Welcome to the Salcombe Brewery Co Sprint Triathlon, one of the first triathlons to take place in this iconic seaside town. This epic event in the wonderful town of Salcombe will put your endurance to the test as you swim, cycle and run through the local villages of Salcombe, Hope and Galmpton.
Starting from North Sands for a 700m swim in the bay, competitors will then head out on the bike course which has numerous undulations through some stunning South Hams countryside. Be ready for some steep sharp inclines and rolling down hills towards the sea. Once you're past Inner and Outer Hope, there is a steep assault on the hill up to Malborough and a nice finish along the escarpment from Marlborough to North Sands with a few switchbacks to finish.
The run aspect is a trail type route into the valley behind North Sands with a gentle ascent to Lower Collaton, and back down a winding track back to North Sands.
As with all our events our focus is on challenging yourself whilst still having fun in a social and welcoming environment. Whether this is your first try at a TRI, or you are a seasoned professional, we welcome all levels, abilities and ages.
IMPORTANT Information:
- If sea conditions on the day of the event are not deemed safe for the swim, the event will revert to a duathlon.
- If you are a Non-British Triathlon Federation Member, you will need to purchase a Race Pass during registration. A Race Pass provides membership to the sport on the day of the event, a race licence and public liability insurance cover only for the duration of the race it was purchased for.
