Experience an exhilarating adventure weekend with the Ultimate Triathlon Event, combining stand-up paddle boarding (SUP), mountain biking, and trail running. This epic challenge invites you to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Ullswater Lake, nestled amidst stunning mountains to the south and gentle hills to the north. The event offers two thrilling race options: a standard distance featuring 3 kilometers of SUP on the serene lake waters, followed by an invigorating 15-kilometer mountain bike ride through rugged terrain, concluding with a scenic 5-kilometer trail run. For those seeking more endurance and adventure, there's also a long-distance option that doubles down on each leg – 6 kilometers of paddle boarding, 30 kilometers of biking, and 10 kilometers of running. The venue at Pooley Bridge provides an unparalleled setting for this multi-discipline challenge, with direct access to majestic mountain bike routes and beautiful road cycling options. On-site facilities include a spacious campsite where you can enjoy the camaraderie of fellow athletes while taking in the stunning views. On Saturday, all participants are invited to participate in complimentary SUP lessons from 9am until 2pm, offering beginners an introduction to paddle boarding as well as advanced techniques for those looking to refine their skills. SUP Yoga sessions will also be available, providing a unique blend of water-based exercise and relaxation. Your entry fee includes not only access to the event but also parking at the venue, a finishers medal, a stylish SUPBIKERUN Tech-Tee, professional timing services throughout your race day journey, Event Protect insurance for added peace of mind, and a refreshing cold beer waiting for you at the finish line. Join us this summer as we celebrate nature’s beauty through sport and community in one unforgettable event.
