Racing Resumes Down Under at 70.3 Sunshine Coast AUS

Friday 11 September 2020

70.3 Sunshine Coast returns to Mooloolaba on Sunday 13th September 2020. The world-class course takes in the highlights of the region as you swim, bike, run your way to success. Competitors can take in the best that Mooloolaba has to offer, starting with a swim off the surf beach followed by a fast bike course and a two-lap run course along the Esplanade cheered on by all your friends, family and the local community.

Athletes will enjoy the experience of a rolling start to kick off the swim course at Mooloolaba’s spectacular surf beach! The ocean swim consists of a one lap course that follows a clockwise direction and starting at ‘Loo With A View’ and finishing just south of the Surf Lifesaving Tower. 

Cycle leg begins from Transition at The Wharf  Car Park in Mooloolaba and heads out onto the Sunshine Motorway via Mooloolaba Esplanade and Buderim Avenue. The Motorway is fast and smooth with a few undulations. The bike course has been extended over Alex Hill riding along the beachfront to Maroochydore and back.

From Transition runners will head north and onto the iconic Mooloolaba Esplanade. After heading over the scenic Alexandra Headland hill, athletes will continue to Cotton Tree via Sixth Avenue and Alexandra Parade. Athletes will follow the same route for the second lap along striking shores and a spectator lined course before finishing in the heart of Mooloolaba.
