Aquathlon in Europe

Planning your race

Aquathlon combines swimming and running without a bike leg. Depending on the event, it may be a swim followed by a run, or a run before and after the swim. The format requires little equipment and is well suited to beginners, junior races and summer events by lakes or the sea. Check whether the swim is in a pool or open water, whether wetsuits are allowed and how far it is from the water to transition. The official race information includes distances, start times and entry requirements.
