This race is a relay where each team member covers the same 5 km course. The race chute will serve as the start and finish (transition for runners 1, 2 and 3) for all team members.
The race starts on the on the coastal pathway at the western end of the Penguin Surf Club building. Runners head west on the coastal path towards Burnie for 2.5km, turn at the turn cone and return to the transition with the next runner or finish.
The coastal path is 3.5m wide. However, as runners will be travelling along the path in both directions throughout the race, competitors are reminded that they must keep to the left-hand side of the path at all times. Please overtake slower runners only when safe to do so.
All warmups should be completed on the pathway to the east of the Penguin Surf Club to avoid crossing the roads or interfering with those that are racing. Club members are asked to be courteous to members of the public using the coastal pathway at all times.
There is limited parking at the Penguin Surf Club and we have a large number of entrants. Alternate parking is available at Johnson’s Beach, parking at this location offers a 1.5km warm up.
The Club and MA & LJ Bates Plumbing will provide a BBQ after the event.
