Course maps

Swim course

2 laps of 1.9K

The Long Distance starts with two swim laps of 1.9 kilometers in the Weerwater (blue line). The start is next to the Theatre Almere on the Esplanade in Almere Stad. You will swim counterclockwise. The first transition from swimming to the bike takes place on the Esplanade.

Bike course

2 laps of 90K

The bike course has a 2 lap structure. The course is divers with dikes, polders, windmills, and a lot of greens!

The long, windy dikes and the open polders are challenging and tough, both mentally and physically.

Run course

6 laps of 7K

From the Esplanade you start your run course through the modern architecture of the city centre. The centre of attention is the green area around the Weerwater, the lake in the middle of Almere that once was part of a sea. The run course consists of six laps. Every lap you pass the stadium where a big crowd cheers you on!
