Course

A one-lap lake swim in clear water (wetsuits must be used) is followed by a fairly flat, one lap ride on quiet country roads before departing for a two lap, traffic free run on paths around the lake (The Novice/Youth event does one lap). The event and its venue are ideal for those moving from pool swim events to open water and provide a great stepping-stone to Sprint and Standard distance.

Prizes

There will be SIS (Science In Sport) prizes for the top finisher in each five-year age group, and first Relay Team in the Super Sprint Event. Prizes are also awarded for first male and female overall and first youths in the Novice Event
