Swim Leg - 400m
Boasting the Barwon Heads Bridge and the famous Diver Dans Boat House (from SeaChange) there could be no more idyllic location for the swim. Protected, calm, crystal, blue water invites all swimmers to enjoy the swim. You swim parallel with the shore-line, never more than 20m or so from the sand. Approximately 50m before the famous Barwon Heads Bridge you will turn and head towards the shore. Next, a short 30m jog in to transition, which is located on the grass field opposite the Barwon Heads Hotel. Bike Leg - 14km
You will grab your bike and head out through Jetty Road turning left on to Ewing Blythe Drive aiming for the famous 13th Beach. The bike leg is a 14km, out and back course. You will struggle to find a more scenic bike section as the ride takes in the famous “Cadel Evans” 13th Beach Road. The amazing views of the ocean, together with a flat and fast course will make this bike leg more enjoyable than painful! Once back in transition you will only have the 4km run leg to complete. Run - 4km
The run heads out over the Barwon Heads footbridge and picks up the trail path to Ocean Grove. Another fast, protected section amongst the coastal bushes and trees make for a beautiful run. At the 2km mark you will turn around and head home towards Barwon Heads Bridge. Back on the footbridge and it’s only 300m to the finish line, at the end of the bridge. Crossing the line you will have successfully completed the 2022 Barwon Heads Triathlon. Drinks and food will be available at the Finish line. If you’re still thirsty after the race 'At The Heads' restaurant and the 'Barwon Heads Hotel' are a short stroll and the perfect place to quench your thirst whilst reminiscing over your race.
