Routes
Route Description
Start your race with the exclusive opportunity to swim in Cardiff Bay. Cardiff Bay is supplied by two rivers to form a 500-acre (2.0 km2) freshwater lake around the former dockland area south of the city centre. You will swim across the bay to the bottom of transition.
Your bike route is 4 laps of a flat and fast 10km closed road route, heading out of transition under the shadow of the Wales Millennium Centre you'll be cheered along by hundreds of spectators as you whizz round the course!
The run is a fast two loops of an out and back run route, showing off the sights of Cardiff Bay along the way. Heading out of transition first towards the Norwegian church and along the cycle path, taking in the sites of industrial heritage that Cardiff is so renowned for. The route is flat and fast especially as you run along the Barrage. The route back gives you views of the Pierhead Building, the Wales Millennium Centre, the Senedd and you’ll have plenty to keep you motivated as you go for that place on the podium and at the World Championships! Once you get to the Senedd Building it's time for your sprint finish; along Bute Place, around the corner and into the finish line in front of the Wales Millennium Centre.
