SUMMARY:Coast 2 Coast
DESCRIPTION:The 2021 Coast 2 Coast Multisport Challenge just got a revamp\n28th December 2020 – 2021 Entries open\n3rd April – Entries close\n1st May – all packs posted to participants\n8th May – Event briefing uploaded to competitor page and login sent. It will be available until the morning of the event. \nThe Course \n\nStage 1 Bike Enniscrone to Ballinamore – 108km\nStage 2 Kayak Ballinamore to Ballyconnell – 26.5km\nStage 3 Bike Ballyconnell to Rostrevor – 141km\nStage 4 Run Rostrevor to Newcastle – 40km\n\nStage 1 - Bike – 107km  \nAfter a brief run from the beach to your bike the first leg of the cycle course will take you 107km from Enniscrone to Ballinamore to the start of the kayak stage. The link above will detail the exact distance and elevation profile. The 1st bike is largely on great roads and surfaces with not too much climbing. There will be one official support point on the first bike stage around the mid-way point. You will pass through the following towns on the way. \nEaskey\nDromore West\nBllysadare\nCollooney\nBallygawley\nBallyfarnon\nKeadew\nDrumshambo\nBallinamore (kayak put in / transition) \nAt the transition to the kayak stage in Ballinamore you will be met by the 26 Extreme team\, Mobile Team Adventure if you have hired kayaks\, your support crews or the 26 Extreme support crew. \nStage 2 - Kayak – 26.5km Ballinamore – Ballyconnell \nCut Off at this point will be 4pm\nThe kayak stages on largely flat water with the majority in a canal system. There are three lakes with the largest being Garadice near the mid-way point. Garadice in strong winds can be tricky and care should be taken if your considering paddling a K-boat in high winds. Hugging the shoreline is always recommended for paddlers who lack confidence in open water. By far the trickiest parts of the paddle asides from the distance are the three lock gates that need to be portaged (carried around) It’s a proper paddle and its beautiful. \nStage 3 - Bike – 141km \nCut off at this point will be 9pm\nAfter transitioning back onto the bike at Ballyconnell you will pass through the following towns + 150km.\nDerrylin\nLisnaskea\nMaguiresBridge\nFivemiletown\nClougher\nBallygawley\nAugnacloy\nCaledon\nArmagh\nNewry\nWarrenpoint\nRostrevor – transition to the mountain run stage in Kilbroney park 30km \nStage 4 - Mountain Run 40km \nCut off at this point will be 9am\nRoute\nNew for 2020 the mountain route will follow the Mourne Way from Rostrevor to Newcastle and will not take in the high Mournes as in previous years. Also new will be the off road nature of the run. In previous years the run has incorporated 2 x road sections. For 2020 these road section have been eliminated making the mountain run entirely off road with the exception of 2 road crossings. The route is as follows: \nStart in Kilbroney and follow Mourne way to Rocky Mountain\nClimb to saddle at Rocky and descent to Rowan tree river\nContinue to the Hen Track and onto Spelga\nCross the road before the Dam and climb Speltha\nDescend and cross road a Fofanny Dam\nContinue past Dam to Happy Valley\nContinue to Sheepfold at Trassey Track\nTurn Left and follow Mourne Way to Tollymore Forest\nContinue through Tollymore and to Donard Forest\nDescend to the finishline in Donard Park \n\nFor full race details visit : https://www.26extreme.com/take-part/coast-2-coast-multisport-challenge/
