A “dual” option allows competitors to complete both triathlon distances in one day. A 1 km beach race runs for young competitors and includes a trophy and medals for category winners. A Run-SUP-Run event includes a 500m beach run, a 1 km paddle board leg following a buoyed shoreline course, then a final 500m run; 100% of entry fees for that event go to the charity Move Against Cancer.
