Overview
This perennial favourite is held at Woodhorn Museum in the QE2 Country Park which boasts a 16 hectare lake surrounded by developing woodland and open grasslands. The swim will be in the warm shallow freshwater lake. The 'undulating' bike route will take you out towards Widdrington Village, before sweeping onto the coast road near Druridge Bay and then along to Cresswell village with some breath-taking views along the coast line. The run will be on the footpath that winds its way through the woodland and open grasslands that surround the lake and passes the Finish at the end of each lap making this ideal for spectators to cheer everyone on to a great finish. The QE2 Woodhorn Museum Triathlon is an ideal multi-sport event for all abilities, and you are guaranteed a great race.
