Fleetwood Triathlon
The Fleetwood Triathlon is scheduled for Sunday 12 September 2027 and is organised by OP Events with chip timing by StuWeb. The venue is Fleetwood Leisure Centre and the adjacent Esplanade promenade, Fleetwood, FY7 6HF.
Distances:
- Adult Sprint: 400m swim / 20km bike / 5km run
- Youth and TriStar junior waves
The swim takes place in the heated 25 m indoor pool at Fleetwood Leisure Centre. Swimmers start individually in staggered, seeded intervals to reduce lane congestion. Transition 1 and Transition 2 are located in a secure car park hub adjacent to the pool; athletes exit the pool into T1 and return there from the bike for T2. Riders leave the car park to a mount line on the promenade road.
The bike leg is a 20 km course on a 100% closed-road circuit along The Esplanade, run as four 5 km laps. The run is an out-and-back 5 km on the flat sea wall coastal path past Marine Hall and local landmarks. Chip timing provides multi-stage splits for swim, T1, bike, T2, and run. Race rules require helmets to remain fastened until bikes are racked in T2.
Categories include junior TriStart and TriStar waves up to adult sprint distance. Every finisher receives a commemorative medal, a participant goody bag, and free downloadable finisher photos. Spectator viewing is available at the swim exit and transition, the Balmoral Terrace turn on the bike course, and the finish arena near Marine Gardens. Spectator parking is available on nearby streets or town centre pay-and-display car parks within a 5–10 minute walk. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
