ATW Odyssey At Box End Triathlon
The ATW Odyssey at Box End Triathlon takes place on Sunday 19 September 2027 at Box End Lakes, Box End Road, Bedford. The event offers multiple race formats around Box End Park, using the lake for open water swimming and park roads and paths for the bike and run courses.
Race formats include:
- Sprint distance triathlon
- Standard Olympic distance triathlon
- Odyssey Middle Distance triathlon
- Aquabike combining swim and bike
- Relay teams of two or three participants
Box End Lake is described as having crystal clear water for open water swimming. The bike routes and run courses are scenic and well marked. The event uses a multi lap course design and is held under non draft legal rules. Marshals and spectator areas provide multiple viewing opportunities along the route. Camping is available at Box End Park and can be booked directly with the park.
Timing and cut offs are set to support safe racing: there is a swim cut off of 1 hour 30 minutes for all distances. There are no overall event cut offs for Sprint and Standard distances. The Odyssey Middle Distance has an overall cut off of 9 hours 30 minutes; participants may be asked to reduce run laps if they are unlikely to finish within this time.
Entries include a bespoke finisher medal, complimentary event photography, finish line snacks and refreshments. Entry prices range from £72 to £190. The event organiser offers a transfer option to future ATW events but does not provide refunds or transfers to another person. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
