This is an Ironman style event the club has decided to stage in place of the Coolangatta Gold which many local athletes have taken part in over the years and which has sadly been cancelled this year due to Covid restrictions.

The event is based on the Coolangatta short course and will consist of a 10.5km ski paddle, 2km swim, 3km board paddle and finishes with a 5.5km soft sand run. The race is over a total of 21kms.

It can be contested as an individual or as part of a team.

The event will be open to surf clubs from the Mid North Coast Branch and entries are limited to 50 to comply with Covid restrictions.

It is hoped the club can make this an annual event as a warm up for Coolangatta in the future.
