🗓️ Sunday 29th June 2025
Challenge yourself to this year’s Swanage Triathlon – an open water swim in the beautiful Swanage Bay, an undulating bike ride through the Purbeck landscape and a run with panoramic views of Swanage, Studland and beyond from the Purbeck Ridgeway.
It’s a challenging but rewarding event, with plenty to do in town if you’re staying for the weekend.
You can complete the triathlon solo or as part of a relay team.
There will be prizes for first, second and third male/female finishers and all age group categories.
Spectators are welcome to cheer participants on, and marshals and medical assistance will be available en route.
