Peebles Sprint Triathlon
Peebles Sprint Triathlon takes place on 20 September 2026 at Peebles Swimming Pool as part of the Live Borders Triathlon Series. The event comprises a pool swim, an out-and-back cycling course, and a riverside run.
Distances:
- Swim: 750m pool based (30 Lengths)

The pool swim is held in Peebles Swimming Pool and athletes start in waves determined by submitted estimated swim times. The transition area is located in the car park adjacent to the pool.
Parking is limited in the public car park behind the pool. Additional parking is available at Kings Meadow Car Park on Kings Meadow Road, located just past the pool and over the bridge on the right.
The cycling route follows the B7062 outward toward Howford Farm with a dead turn sending riders back along the same road. The route passes Kalzie gardens and Traquair. The run follows the River Tweed, loops twice around the Three Bridges and continues along a circular riverside route crossing at Priorsford and Fotheringham bridges. Nearby local attractions mentioned for the area include Glentress, Go Ape, Dawyck Botanic Gardens, and The Cross Kirk, a friary founded in the late 13th century.
Entry fees listed are £38 until 05 December 2025 and £40 until 06 September 2026. The event closed for entries on 06 September 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
