Main Event Details

The event replaces the traditional swimming leg with stand up paddle boarding (SUP), followed by road cycling and trail running. Participants can choose between different course lengths and entry formats, including individual and relay options. E-bikes are permitted on the cycling routes, with results for electric bike participants listed in a separate category.

- Standard Distance: 2 km SUP, 21 km road cycling (one lap), and 5 km trail run.
- Long Distance: 4 km SUP, 42 km road cycling (two laps), and 10 km trail run.
Event Schedule
The weekend is structured as a two-day experience. The first day is dedicated to water-based activities, offering non-compulsory SUP training sessions such as beginner lessons, masterclasses, and SUP yoga. The main competition takes place on the second day.
