K1 Super Sprint Santa Relay
Each member of the team individually swims 400 metres before tagging their team mate, and so on, and so on, until all four people have completed the swim. Moving onto the 14km bike, each athlete individually completes the 14km bike, until the last team member then tags the first team member to start the 2.5km run section.

Please bring cash only on the day
We will post results and times on the website following the race. This will be an overall team time, unfortunately we will not be able to give individual timings.
This is some Christmassy fun but there will be medals for the top male, female and mixed teams and a prize for the best fancy dress (please make sure this is safe, especially when riding the bike - we don't want anything getting caught up in the moving parts!)
For safety reasons, please bring a swim cap - if you can't get hold of one, please get in touch as we have a few spares.
20 Euros per team of 3 - all proceeds go to Operation Christmas Box. Here is a bit about this charity:
In 2022, thanks entirely to generous donations from members of the public and sponsors, Operation Christmas Box was able to send nearly 8,000 Christmas gift Boxes to unaccompanied UK Armed Forces personnel on duty overseas over the Christmas period. Boxes were sent to operational theatres such as Afghanistan, to ships, submarines and Air Wings across the globe. They are also delivered here in Cyprus, to personnel on Op Shader.

We are looking forward to see you all there!
