Lighthouse Ultra 180 Triathlon

Lighthouses symbolise safety, guidance and resilience - essential to navigating the challenging course of the coast to coast Lighthouse Ultra 180 Triathlon. 

​

Athletes have three days to take on England's highest mountain summit, longest lake and a scenic route across three national parks, an epic 180 mile adventure. 

​

The lighthouse signals the start and end, but the journey in-between relies on your physical and mental strength and support team to reach the finish.

​

Do you have what it takes to follow the light and find your limits?
