Dive into the details of each day of this epic journey:
🏊 The Nieuwpoort Swim
Friday 20/09/2024
Kick off your Full Long Course Weekend with a splash in the Nieuwpoort Swim, a 3.8 km open-water course that stands as one of Belgium's few open-water swimming challenges.
As the starting gun fires, athletes plunge into the pristine waters, slicing through the waves with determination. Feel the rush of adrenaline as you conquer this demanding swim leg, setting the tone for the days ahead.
🚴 Cycle Flanders Fields
Saturday 21/09/2024
Day two brings Cycle Flanders Fields, a grueling 180 km bike course that winds through the historic landscapes of Flanders, including the iconic Kemmelberg. Starting and finishing in the heart of Nieuwpoort, cyclists embark on a journey that combines scenic beauty with physical exertion.
Pedal through rolling hills, picturesque villages and iconic landmarks, drawing inspiration from the rich history of the region. Every revolution of the wheels brings you closer to the ultimate achievement.
🏃 The Nieuwpoort Marathon
Sunday 22/09/2024
The culmination of the Full Long Course Weekend arrives with the Nieuwpoort Marathon, a 42.2 km test of endurance that traverses the streets of Nieuwpoort and beyond.
As the sun rises on race day, runners lace up their shoes, ready to tackle the final leg of this extraordinary journey. With every stride, participants draw strength from the cheers of spectators lining the route, propelling them towards the finish line.
Cross that threshold and become a part of history.
🥇 Medal Ceremony
For those who conquer all three long distances within the designated cutoff times, the Full Long Course Weekend culminates in a triumphant medal ceremony.
Conquerors of all three distances step onto the red carpet to receive the iconic 4th LCW medal—a symbol of their indomitable spirit and dedication.
Embracing the Uniqueness of a 3-Day Endurance Adventure
Unlike a typical single-day triathlon, the 3-day endurance spectacle of LCW Belgium presents a distinctive opportunity for athletes. Spread across three days, it allows athletes to push their limits without the constraints of a single event. However, this extended format also offers a complication: muscles can become stiff, fatigue can accumulate and affect performance. It's a delicate balance between pushing boundaries and embracing renewal, ensuring each day brings renewed determination and the chance for unparalleled achievement.
