Date for your diaries..

🚨 Kernowman Returns - 30th May, save the date 🚨

After it's inaugural race in 2025, Kernowman (Marazion Triathlon) is one of the largest 70.3s in the South West already, selling out twice! (As well as actually putting on a swim, iykyk)
We're hoping to make this bigger and better in 2026, increasing the entry capacity.

We've listened to feedback from this year's race and will make a few improvements to hopefully make the day more enjoyable for everyone. Marazion town council are in full support of the event, approving the use of a road closure in the town centre to limit interactions with cars on the narrow road (pending County Council approval). We're also including an earlier start time to minimise traffic on the roads, giving you more room to race.

Entries aren't currently open while we 'dot the I's and cross the T's' but will be open very soon. Register your interest for 2026 and be notified when entries open by signing up via the website. You'll also receive a small discount to use for being an early supporter of the race.

See you on 30th May!

Massive thank you the water safety team for keeping competitors safe in the water!!!!

Our incredible 2025 Perranporth Surf Triathlon water safety team.

1 safety person to 4 swimmers in the main Olympic race we think is pretty outstanding cover, honed from 32 years of making Triathlon safe.
