Sun City Ultra Triathlon : Sun City Resort
The Sun City Ultra Triathlon is a multi-distance triathlon held at Sun City Resort. Registration and race-day check-in take place at the 19th Hole, Gary Player Country Club. The transition area and finish are on the Cabanas lawns.
Race categories and primary distances:
- Sprint: 750 m swim, 20 km cycle, 5 km run
- Standard: 1.5 km swim, 40 km cycle, 10 km run
- T100 / Aquabike: 2 km swim, 80 km cycle, 18 km run
Swim courses use multiple laps depending on category. Bike routes are a mix of loop and out-and-back sections; the T100 bike requires passing the far turn point three times. Run laps are largely off-road on easy dirt roads and gravel around the Gary Player Country Club and Lost City Golf Course; trail shoes are not essential. Water and nutrition support is provided: two water tables on the bike route and four on the run, with water sachets, 32Gi products and Coke; sponges are available at run tables if the weather is very hot.
Entry includes a limited edition event garment or item, personalized race number, goodie bag and finisher medal; late entries receive a race number, bike sticker and wrist band. Prize money and prizes are listed for each race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
