The Royal Windsor Triathlon is a historic multisport event featuring an open water swim in the River Thames, a closed-road cycle through Windsor, and a run past Windsor Castle along the Long Walk.

What this race demands

The Royal Windsor Triathlon demands a balanced multisport effort across a 51.5 km standard distance with moderate elevation change.

Multisport transition

Athletes must manage the physiological shift from an open water swim in the River Thames to a closed-road cycle and a run past Windsor Castle.

Aero positioning

The closed-road cycling leg requires sustained power output on the bike to maintain speed across the course.

Running fatigue resistance

The final run leg along the Long Walk demands efficient running form under the fatigue of prior swimming and cycling efforts.
