The swim will be a sea swim on a triangular course off the main Skerries Beach (pictured). You will start on the south beach and run into the sea to start. The Olympic competitors will complete two laps.

The 20km Cycle loop

This course has always always been won and lost on the bike, Long may this tradition continue.The olympic competitors will do two loops of this 20km course.
