200M 'Pool' Swim
Whether swimming is your thing or something you'll train hard to complete, all levels of swimmer are welcome at Tri Cheddar. Breast stroke, front crawl, maybe a bit of doggy paddle!
​
Our super sprint triathlon swim distance is 200 meters. The swims take place in a 25m indoor pool. You will swim 8 lengths, each lane has 3-4 participants swimming at one time. You are grouped together with others of the same ability so your get clear water ahead. Looking for a longer swim enter our sprint triathlon event.
12.5K 'Open Road' Bike
Once you have completed transition one (T1) its on to the bike, the super sprint triathlon features an 'open road' 12.5K loop. This means that you are sharing the road with other road users and should follow the highway code at all times.
​
A mostly flat cycle ride that takes in beautiful views of Cheddar Gorge without the climb! It has a small incline as you head out of Cheddar and towards Nyland before heading back towards Cheddar. The route is well sign posted and event marshals are on hand to make sure you don't take a wrong turn.

2.5K Run
After swapping your bike for your running shoes in transition 2 (T2) you have made it to the run. The 2.5K short out and back course is run on a mix of grass and tarmac along the old Strawberry line footpath with a largely flat course. Cheddar is also home to Jacobs ladder so we have found you a baby Jacobs ladder just for fun as you come in to take your final glory lap around Kings sports field and reach the finish line.
