Event Details
Course Description
All courses start with a lake swim at the Champion Lakes Regatta Centre – a single 750 m lap for the Sprint, 400 m for the Bolt and a 100 m splash‑and‑dash for the Novice/Tin Lids. After the swim, athletes transition to a smooth, paved road loop that climbs briefly over a car bridge before looping back for multiple laps: three bike laps for the Sprint (20 km total) and two laps for the Bolt (12 km). The run finishes on the same flat circuit, with two 2.5 km laps for the Sprint and a single 2.5 km lap for the Bolt. The Novice run is a single 1 km lap. Spectators enjoy lake views and parkland scenery while athletes tackle a fast, road‑friendly course.
Getting There
The event is held at Champion Lakes Regatta Centre in the suburb of Champion Lakes, Perth, WA. Parking and public‑transport information are provided on the official race website, so plan to arrive early to allow time for registration and transition set‑up.
