Olympic Course
Feel the sand between your toes as your race towards the Pacific Ocean swim start. Dive in and swim 1.5k before sprinting up the beach to the bike transition. Once on the bike, there will be a 40k out-and-back ride along the Pacific Coast Highway before a final 10k out-and bike along Zuma Beach. This race will be challenging for all who take part. As you race, take in the awe-inspiring atmosphere from the supports and embrace the panoramic vistas of the Malibu coastline.

This race has a 0.5-mile swim, before a snappy 17-mile out-and-back ride, before a final 4-mile out-and-back along the beautiful shores of Zuma Beach.
