ATW Big East & Maldon Triathlon
Active Training World (ATW) presents a triathlon event on 4 July 2027 at Promenade Park, Park Drive, Maldon, Essex. The event includes middle, standard and sprint triathlon distances and takes place on tidal river waters with cycling and running on local roads and paths.

- Standard Distance: 1500 m swim, 40 km bike, 10 km run
- Sprint Distance: 750 m swim, 25 km bike, 5 km run
Aquabike (swim and bike) and team Relay options are available across all distances, with teams of two or three permitted for relays.
The swim uses a 750 m looped course beside the statue of Byrhtnoth and heads toward Northey Island. The bike course is non-draft legal and follows quiet roads on the Dengie Peninsula, passing Latchingdon, Tillingham, Steeple and Mayland. The run is a flat 5 km loop along the promenade and sea wall footpath, with the final kilometre through Promenade Park. Surfaces include paved paths, grass and gravel track.
Tidal conditions set a swim cut-off of 1 hour 10 minutes and an overall event cut-off of 9 hours. British Triathlon categories applied are a Female category for athletes who are female at birth and an Open category for other athletes; transgender athletes are explicitly welcome. Finishers receive a medal and additional finish-line items. Entry prices range from £68 to £180. Parking is available at Promenade Park with fees.
