Are You Ready for the Ultimate Test of Endurance? In 2026, challenge yourself at the GEORDIEMAN Triathlon Series, an endurance event set against the backdrop of Druridge Bay Country Park in Northumberland. This stunning location offers a mix of calm waters and scenic coastal roads that will test even the most seasoned athletes. The full distance triathlon covers 140.6 miles (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride, and 26.2-mile run), while the half distance event is 70.3 miles long (1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride, and 13.1-mile run). Both distances offer a unique blend of aquatic challenges in Ladyburn Lake's calm waters and scenic coastal cycling routes that wind through unspoiled beaches and nature trails. For those who prefer to leave out the running or biking segments, there are aquabike events (full: 2.4-mile swim + 112-mile bike ride; half: 1.2-mile swim + 56-mile bike ride) as well as an aquathlon event combining a shorter swim and run. The race day starts early with the full distance triathletes setting off at 6:30 AM, followed by the half-distance participants at 6:50 AM. Duathlon runners will start simultaneously alongside open water swimmers beginning their solo challenge at 8:30 AM. Registration takes place on Saturday from 3 PM to 7 PM and continues early Sunday morning until an hour before each event starts. Participants can collect race packs during these times, but there’s no pre-event mail-out option available. Upon finishing the grueling course, all athletes will receive a finisher medal along with a hoody or T-shirt (excluding swim-only participants). Hot food and snacks are provided post-race to help you refuel after your efforts. Event photography is also on hand for those who wish to capture their achievement in photos. Throughout the race, feed stations offer VOOM Pocket Rockets, hydration drinks, fresh fruit, sweets, chocolate, savoury snacks, and water refill points at key intervals along both bike and run routes. The transition area offers secure storage with clear rules about helmets being visible on bikes. Amenties like toilets are scattered around the event village for convenience throughout race day. Northumberland Coffee will be available from 5 AM to help you start your day right, while camping options include hardstanding pitches or a tent field within Druridge Bay Country Park itself. Cut-off times strictly apply: full distance participants must transition into their run by 5 PM. Awards are presented for top male and female athletes in each category as well as relay teams that complete the challenge together. With its mix of flat terrain, picturesque scenery, and a supportive atmosphere, the GEORDIEMAN Triathlon Series is an ideal destination for triathletes looking to push their limits while enjoying one of England’s most beautiful coastal landscapes.
