Blenheim Palace Triathlon routes
The swim is an open water (and freshwater) swim in the lake. The bike course consists of a gently rolling route circling the estate, while the run is a scenic offering around the Queen's Pool.
The Sprint Team Relay is a great introduction to triathlon. Teams of 3 will have one member complete each element of the event, eg one member swims, one bikes, and one runs. The 'baton' or timing chip is passed between teammates in transition, then all members of the team will meet and cross the finish line together.
Sprint: 750m Swim, 19.8km Bike, 5.4km Run
Sprint Team Relay: 750m Swim, 19.8km Bike, 5.4km Run
Super Sprint: 500m Swim, 13.3km Bike, 2.9km Run

Charles CDid the Sprint - Saturday in 2019
Fantastic event all round. Great for a first tri. Lovely swim, then nice to cycle on closed roads. Transitions can feel long but apart from that excellent course.J
Joao BDid the Sprint - Saturday in 2019
This was such an amazing experience. I left wanting to repeat it next year and improve my PB. Can't beat Blenheim!J
James RDid the Super Sprint - Sunday in 2019
What can I say? Ideal setting, great organisation well thought out course and closed roads! And not to mention the most regal of transition areas. The only negative is the cost for spectators (£40 or thereabouts for two)Did the Sprint - Saturday in 2019
Fantastic event, it gave a real sense of being part of something epic and special. Organisation, marshalling etc was fantastic and flawless for such big event !! Cant wait to do it again next year !!C

Jay GoodmanDid the Sprint - Saturday in 2019
First time doing this event and from
the start it was a great day. The event as a whole was very well organised and coordinated. Event area loaded with stands an stalls and plenty to do for the kids. The event itself was layed out well, really enjoyed the cheeky uphill run after the swim to transition. Transition was well organised with no areas were a #hangingout triathlete could go wrong and both the bike and running routes being enclosed challenging but fun. Further loads of first time and experienced triathlete took part which made for a great atmosphere. One piece of advice is to arrive as early as possible, I had 2 hours which ment for a non rushed look round, checking swim start, finish, transition entry exits and as it's a lap course noting where I had to cut of or merge on both the bike /run routes.
Recomend this event to anyone.
Challenge yourself or stay the same !
