HALF THE DISTANCE, DOESN’T MEAN HALF THE KUDOS
The 70.3 HALF IRON TRI DISTANCE is a huge challenge on any terrain. The Northumbrian is set in and around the beautiful Kielder Water, whose roads and trails known for their undulating nature – this race will not be easy on the legs! Please ensure you are confident in your ability to complete the course before entering.
NEW EXCITING EVENT ADDED - Trail runs 20K and 50K Ultra distances. Taking advantage of newly created trails at Kielder, the Northumbrian 50K Ultra and 20K runs will debut at the 2025 event. Starting at Kielder Waterside while the Northumbrian Triathletes are completing their bike leg, you will join the triathlon run loop after completing a spectacular 25KM loop taking in the new Lonesome Pine trail and some of the best views of Kielder Water.
Get some extra support from your friends and family over the final two laps of bull crag, where you will pass through the event village before finishing alongside your fellow runners and triathletes at the lake’s edge.
