Event Details
Course Description
The race kicks off at the Andrew Boy Charlton Pool in Sydney’s CBD. Runners head out for a 4 km road loop that winds through the historic Art Gallery Road precinct, offering views of iconic cultural landmarks and city streets. After completing the run, participants return to the pool for a 300 m swim – six laps in a single lane – in the sparkling Olympic‑size water. The course is flat and fast, with clear signage and a supportive crowd, making it ideal for both seasoned triathletes and casual joggers looking for a fun challenge.
Getting There
The event is held at Andrew Boy Charlton Pool, 1C Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney NSW 2000. Check‑in opens at 5:30 pm, so aim to arrive early to collect your race number and store any valuables in the pool lockers. For parking, public transport options and detailed directions, please refer to the official event website.
Weather & What to Pack
November in Sydney is late spring, typically warm with daytime highs between 18‑24 °C and mild humidity. Expect plenty of sunshine and occasional light showers. Dress in breathable, moisture‑wicking clothing for the run and bring a swim cap and goggles for the pool. Stay hydrated before and after the race – a water bottle and a light snack are recommended.
