Event overview
From the organisers of the hugely successful Clevedon SwimRun on the same weekend, this will be an amazing celebration of swim, bike, run for years to come!
It utilises the magnificent Marine Lake where a 750m open water swim will start off the event in the safety of the lake with a backdrop of the glorious Victorian Clevedon Pier. The bike route is fast and undulating with a loop towards the village of Portishead and back on some stunning roads with sea views across the channel to Wales. Finally, you’ll take on the 5km run route. A mix of flat paved seafront promenade and scenic trails around Poets Walk and Wains Hill and then you’ll return to the Salthouse Fields to finish with your arms aloft, smiling for the camera!

Timetable
The number of waves will be dependent on the number of entries.
Ability level
If you can confidently swim 100m, ride 25km and run 5-7km, that’s great. Get involved with some Go Tri events and pool-based novice and sprint triathlons over the summer. This will stand you in good stead for the Clevedon Triathlon.
Training
Training is strongly recommended. A managed acclimatisation swim following the SwimRun is on offer. You can also join the ‘mid-week warriors’ community group to help with your training.
Safety
Safety across the event will come in the form of kayakers for the swim section and appropriately positioned marshalls for the bike and run courses.

The event was superbly organised with updates beforehand to keep us well informed. Marshals were absolutely brilliant – very enthusiastic, very helpful, and all showed great encouragement. Our first class event. Anne H
Brilliant event, would highly recommend and do again. Michael C
The event organisers were helpful, attentive and personable. Clevedon is a beautiful place to run and the lido was manned well and instructions and napping were wonderfully clear. Would definitely recommend if you fancy something a little different😊 Kerry S
