• Description: The Swim: Rated as one of the best beaches by National Geographic, Ocean Beach offers an open water swim course with majestic views and clear waters. The 1/2 mile swim is a triangular course, beginning and ending on the mile long “sugar-sand” beach. Swim waves do not exceed 100 people and we offer a special wave for first timers.
  
  The Bike: The Bike course is a 16.1 mile loop through the oceanfront boulevards of New London and the town of Waterford. Long straight-aways along flat, sea level roads will make this course popular with both experienced riders and beginners. The course is well-monitored by police and volunteers.
  
  The Run: The run course is a loop of 3.1 miles completely along New London’s famous Pequot Avenue, an oceanfront boulevard lined with spectacular homes. A spectacular beach finish caps off a perfect race.
