nformation
Date: Sunday 18th December
Race Distances: 300m swim / 13 km ride / 3 km run
Entry Fee: $50 for TA members, $60 for non-members
Location: Race registration, start, finish and transition will be adjacent to the Acton Ferry Terminal, Acton (access from Commonwealth Avenue Bridge), plenty of car parks will be available close to the race site.

Swim: A 300m lap around course using some of the established swim course provided by the National Capital Authority. Swim start and finish will be just west of the Acton Ferry Terminal building.

Bike: Your bike course is on a smooth, wide road, Parkes Way, which will be closed to vehicle traffic. You will ride 1 lap of a 13km loop. The course is generally flat and fast - there are two points in the western half of the course where you may need to get out of the saddle to keep up a good speed.

Run: The 3 km run is an out and back course on bicycle/pedestrian paths that takes you alongside Lake Burley Griffin to the turnaround at the National Museum of Australia and return to the finish line at Acton. The course is mostly flat with a gradual gradient as you approach the Museum. The turnaround is in front of the Museum and so you speed back the way you came and celebrate as you cross the finish line at Acton.
