A woman in a black wetsuit, wet from swimming, smiles excitedly and gives two thumbs up while standing on a dock by the water. People and trees are visible in the background. A cyclist in a blue racing outfit and black helmet rides a bike at high speed on a paved road near greenery. The cyclist is leaning forward in an aerodynamic position. A triathlete in a black and orange suit runs on a bridge, passing traffic cones. The runner wears sunglasses and looks focused. Other people and greenery are visible in the background. A man in a wetsuit walks barefoot on a red carpet, appearing to adjust his goggles or wipe his face. Another person in a wetsuit and colorful jacket follows behind, with blurred people and buildings in the background. A cyclist wearing a bright yellow jersey and helmet, marked with the number 38, rides a blue road bike on a paved rural road next to a wooden fence and grassy landscape. A triathlete in a black and white suit runs across a suspension bridge during a race, with spectators and the bridge’s entrance sign visible in the background under a partly cloudy sky. A smiling athlete wearing a blue triathlon suit and medal stands barefoot on grass under a "FINISH" arch, holding up both hands in peace signs. Trees and sunshine are visible in the background.

Organiser's Description

The Chester Triathlon is an Olympic distance triathlon held in the centre of the historic City of Chester. It is currently in its 28th Year. Since 2025 it has been organised by Active Leisure Events who took over organising this fantastic event from Chester Triathlon Club members who organised it for the previous 26 Years. Active Leisure Events continue to work closely with Chester Triathlon Club who support on the delivery.

The Chester Triathlon has been awarded the World Standard Distance Triathlon Qualifier for the Deva Olympic distance which will again race the same course that we have had since 2013. The 100K distance has now become the Deva Centurion – 100K and the new addition in 2025 of the Deva Short Distance will continue again in 2026. We will also once again be including a standard distance Aquabike.

We have had so many fantastic comments about the course being located right in the heart of the City. Transition is in the fabulously stunning Grosvenor Park, a fantastic Victorian Park. The bike route will be a single lap (2 laps for the Deva Centurion – 100K) into Wales via Eccleston, Rossett and Borras and back into Chester via Alford and Boughton. The run route will incorporate running over the Old Dee Bridge as well as the suspension bridge, along the Groves and in the meadows with the finish being at the Bandstand, a truly City Centre race.
