MULTISPORT EVENT 

Cycle - Run - Kayak - Run


Starting at the Rakaia Domain entrance, with an approx 36km bike ride west along the Rakaia-Barrhill-Methven Road, transitioning to a *1.5km run to get to kayaks through farm and riverbed. Then kayaking the 14km course, (depending on river conditions) to another run transition, running the next *11.5km through riverbed tracks, farmland and the Rakaia Walkway to finish back at the Rakaia Domain.

Total run is approximately 13km.  *courses are subject to change

Many competitors enter this event to gain experience, and training for the Coast to Coast.

PLAN B - Because all our events are weather and river dependent, if in the case of a cancellation of the Multisport, all competitors will be offered the option of entering the Long Duathlon event.
