Wimbleball Lake Triathlon
The Wimbleball Sports Festival triathlon combines open water swimming in Wimbleball Lake, cycling on roads through Exmoor and traffic free trail running around the lake. The event offers multiple race formats across swim, bike and run that suit different competition choices and ages.
Distances and formats include:
- Iron Distance
- 70.3 Distance
- Standard Distance
- Sprint Distance
- Supersprint
- Relay events
- Aquabike races
- Aquathlon
- Tristar junior races
The bike routes use Exmoor roads with climbs and rolling terrain. The run courses are described as scenic and traffic free around the Wimbleball area. Open water swims take place in the lake under race day conditions.
The festival includes options for first time triathletes, junior competitors, experienced athletes and relay teams. Aquabike and aquathlon formats allow participation without all three disciplines. Relay entries are available for selected events and Tristar classes provide a junior pathway.
Race operations follow British Triathlon guidance on equipment and safety. Wetsuit use is determined by water temperature in line with those rules. Detailed race information including maps, parking, registration and baggage arrangements is emailed to participants in the week before the event.
