Head off on our challenging bike course for 2 60km laps, starting off in closed road conditions for your safety. Day 2 sees you taking on three laps of the course to give you the 180km challenge in your 8-hour cutoff. On day 3, you will complete the 50km run within sight of the water along the shaded Esplanade foreshore path. Four laps of the course and an unforgettable finish await you with a bit of out-and-back on the iconic Pier before you savor that finish line feeling.

You’ll be surrounded by fellow athletes who share your passion and drive throughout both portions.
