Course description
A half distance in north-west Sardinia: a Mediterranean swim off Alghero, a rolling bike course through the coastal landscape and a flat run in the old town.
Coach tip
The rolling bike course has no single decisive section — what matters is how evenly you ride across the 90 kilometres.
The Mediterranean is pleasant by late May, but the coastal wind shifts: practise holding aero in a crosswind.
The flat old-town run is fast and easy to pace — split it into three equal blocks rather than kilometres.
