Galway Aquathon Festival

Organiser: Galway Triathlon Club

Jul 28, '19 at 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Swimming in Lough Corrib and running around the grounds of Dangan on the shores of the river, the event is expected to attract athletes of all abilities and aspirations from across Ireland. Athletes can choose either a 1km or 2km swim in the Corrib followed by a running loop of 5km taking in the natural beauty and scenery of the towpath along the river bank at Dangan Sportsground.

The standard race of a 1000m Swim from Dangan Pier downstream towards Corrib Village Pier is followed by a flat and fast 5k run, perfect for those wishing to test their speed and try something a little different this Summer.

The Long Course is a great test of swim and run ability for those looking for a slightly tougher challenge with a 2k swim and 10K Run.  There’s also the option for a bit of fun in the 2k swim 5k fun race.

The Aquathon Festival has something for everyone regardless of previous triathlon experience and is a great opportunity for participants to try out the sport in the short race, challenge and test themselves in the Long Course or team up with a swimmer or runner for the Relay Race on the Long Course.

Registration is via Triathlon Ireland, with number collection on the day at the Corrib Village Slipway.  For more information on how you can get involved in this fantastic event or to register to race in The Aquathon Festival, check out the details on Facebook, or email [email protected].
