Swim Course - 750 m
Bike Course - 20 km
The bike course is a two loop course on CLOSED ROADS with very smooth road surfaces in almost every part. The 5k out has a little drag as you leave Skerries, hugging the coastline as you head for Balbriggan. Take time to appreciate the beautiful sea view as you speed along!
The turnaround point will be on a wide section of road, and then it is a very fast 5k section back into Skerries.
"So nice, you get to do it twice!"
Run Course - 5 km
The 5km run is truly breathtaking. A pancake flat 5km along the coastline of Skerries with hundreds of supporters cheering you on.
