Course Description

Distances: .3 mile swim, 15 mile bike, 3.3 mile run

The race begins and ends at Ryckman Park in Melbourne Beach.

Swim Course The swim takes place in the Indian River Lagoon. Swimmers will enter and exit the water from the historic Melbourne Beach Pier. After the swim, participants will advance from the pier to the adjacent transition area in Ryckman Park.

Bike Course The bike segment is a long, straight, flat, and fast out and back course that follows A1A south along ocean-side parks and nature preserves. Riders will u-turn (police supervised) at the southern end of the course and return to Ryckman Park.

Run Course The run course goes northward, beside the Indian River and loops through quiet, residential neighborhoods. The finish line is on Ocean Ave in front of the historic Ryckman House.
