From the organisers of the 2015 Most Enjoyable Event and the 2016 Event of the Year, Monifieth Triathlon Club are delighted to announce that the Team Relay Triathlon at Monikie Park, Angus will return for 2019.

Team Relay

Our Mixed Team Relay event, aimed at ages 15+ will take place in and around Monikie Park in a safe and fun environment and is a fantastic spectator event for everyone to enjoy. The Team Relay takes place directly after the completion of the Tri Stars and Youth event and requires 4 team mates to take part . Each athlete completes a 300m open water swim, 5km bike and 1.25km run before handing their chip over to their next team member. The final team member completes the event by crossing the finish line. The fastest team on the day wins!

SWIM : The swim will take place from the beach in the north pond, following a simple 300m course before exiting up the sluice and up the banking before running into T1. This will be a fast course with athletes entering the water continuously throughout the event as each of their team mates passes them their timing chip at the beach changeover.

Bike : The bike starts off at the main transition area before exiting via the south gate, looping around the outer perimeter of the park in a counter clockwise direction before reentering the park via the south gate. The Team Relay event takes place on open roads however is heavily marshaled as this is a fast and furious event. Athletes only need to complete one single loop of the bike course

Run : The last leg of the event takes place on the paths between the North and South ponds with the athletes running a fast out and back loop, The first three of each team will return to the beach changeover zone and the last athlete of each team will finish by running through the finish arch

This event will open for race entry on January 1st 2019.
