You will be required to set up your transition area prior to the event starting. The transition area will be open from 6.45am and will close at 7.40am. The first person will get into the water at 8am.

At the point of entry, you will be required to enter a predicted swim time which be used to dictate the start lists. Please be as accurate as possible when entering your swim time and consider doing your own timed swim if you are unsure of your swim time.

There are four lanes and the pool is 50m long. Swimmers will start in lane one (as indicated by the marshal on the day) and swim up one side of the lane and back down the other. They will then dip under the lane rope into lane two, and so on. After 400m (8 lengths) they will leave the pool and head into transition. Tumble turns are permitted, however care must be exercised at all times.

The run course is a 5km loop (5 laps) around London Fields Common. It is your responsibility to ensure you do the correct number of laps. There will be a timing mat to record the time of each lap undertaken. Please ensure you stay alert to pedestrians, cyclists and dogs that may be in the park during the event. Please inform a marshal if you fail to complete the run section of the event. We want to ensure all competitors return safely. The run route has a mixture of pavement and grass sections. Please wear appropriate footwear to match the weather conditions on the day.
