Competitors will jump from new high-speed ferries into the warm waters of the Atlantic and swim to the Royal Naval Dockyard. Following the swim, a 24-mile bike ride will take the competitors along South Road hugging the beautiful Bermudian coastline from the western tip of Bermuda to historic cobblestone streets of St. George’s in the East. Finally, the competitors will enjoy a challenging six-mile run on trails that hug the northern coast of George’s Island. They will wind their way along the old railroad tracks as they pass Bermuda’s oldest and most famous historical landmarks and finish back in St. George’s at King’s Square.
