The swim leg (1.5km) starts at Chrysi Milia beach heading toward Milia beach, exits the sea toward the sports field, turns onto the Patitiri-Gerakas road, climbs to the Chrysi Milia junction, then descends back to the beach for the run finish.
Open to ages 18+ with a recent medical check-up; participants must bring their own swim buoy.
Runners must hand over their running shoes and race kit to organizers at packet pickup so they can be placed in the transition zone.
