The race will be based on Redcar Esplanade right in the heart of the town. The aims are to make this a great race for the competitors and also a spectacular event for the town and it's midsummer visitors to enjoy.

As locals will know there are some seafront works taking place in Redcar at the moment, however it has been confirmed that the road will be available on the triathlon date (phew). However it is 'work in progress' and the exact locations of transition area, routes etc will probably not be known until quite near to the day of the race. But it will be along the seafront and Esplanade area.

The start will be on the beech at low tide (slightly higher than last year, so less running in shallow water) in an area naturally protected by Redcar Scars. The transition area will be on the seafront adjacent to where the new vertical pier is to be built. The bike course is all on closed roads along The Seafront between the Shoreline roundabout and Majuba Road. It will comprise 6 laps making a total distance of 20k. It's all flat with plenty of opportunity for the fast guys to get up a good head of steam.

The run will be 1 5k lap east from the transition area area along the seafront to the turn point just beyond the junction with Green Lane. Then retrace, more or less, to the finish. (provisional)

The event is aimed at all abilities. Our ethos is very much about the personal challenge of triathlon for real world people as well as providing competition in a professionally organised event for those that want it.

The minimum age for entrants is 16yrs on 31/12/2011.
