Bodmin Triathlon | The Dragon - Bodmin Leisure Centre
The Bodmin Triathlon The Dragon is scheduled for 23 August 2026 at Bodmin Leisure Centre in Cornwall. The event uses the centre pool for the swim, a rolling bike route in the surrounding area, and a run loop that passes through the woodland near Lanhydrock’s Victorian estate.
The event offers two distance options:
- LITTLE DRAGON Super Sprint: 200 m swim, 13 km bike, 2.5 km run
- BIG DRAGON Sprint: 400 m swim, 26 km bike, 5.6 km run
A leafier Sprint course is listed alongside a beginner friendly Super Sprint format. All finishers receive a medal. The event is part of the Cornish Tri Series where athletes score points toward overall series awards; the series uses a best of four results plus a volunteering requirement for final standings and age group categories from Open to Super Vintage.
Volunteering is integrated into the event model. People who bring a volunteer receive a 50 percent credit on an entry fee for future events and individuals who volunteer receive a 100 percent credit toward a future sprint entry. Roles may include setup, registration, marshal duties, transition and finish zone assistance. Minimum volunteer age is 13 years for most roles.
Additional event services mentioned include free parking provisions by wave in the event pack and route maps for bike and run courses. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
