Dartford Bridge Triathlon : 5 July 2026
The Dartford Bridge Triathlon takes place at the Bridge lakes and reserve on 5 July 2026. The organiser reports entry is near capacity and a small price increase will apply for 2026; this is their second price increase in 17 years. The Standard distance race is part of the London Series and the field has been increased to 400 places. A Sprint Triathlon will also be held on 6 September 2026 and entrants to the Bridge Triathlon will be sent a discount code for that event.
Registration is located by the container and the finish is to the left of the transition area. Car parking is free and described as a short stroll to registration and the start. Non British Triathlon Federation members will need a day licence from British Triathlon.
Course formats and distances are listed below:
- Standard: swim 1500m, bike 42km, run 10km
- Relay: swim 1500m, bike 42km, run 10km
- Sprint: swim 750m, bike 21km, run 5km

If parts of the course are lost the event will convert to an alternative format: loss of road will result in an Aquathon, loss of lake will result in a Duathlon. If the race is cancelled due to bad weather a 50% refund will be issued. Swimming in the lakes is forbidden except during authorised events or open water training sessions; unauthorised swimmers will be asked to leave and be barred from future events.
