ULTRA520K CANADA is a 3-day ultra-distance, stage triathlon that takes place in the South Okanagan and Similkameen Valley annually over the August Long Weekend.

The event is, first and foremost, an individual endurance challenge, where the spirit of camaraderie and goodwill are to be fostered whenever possible, and every athlete is recognized. It is not about how you finish relative to others in the event, but rather that you do your best while participating with fairness, honor and respect for all.

Distances and disciplines consist of:

  • Day 1 – 10.0K Swim & 149.8K Bike
  • Day 2 – 275.8K Bike
  • Day 3 – 84.4K Run.

Each day has a 12-hour cut off.

Each athlete travels with a crew consisting of 1 vehicle and 2 to 4 crew members who are responsible for the support and welfare of the athlete.

The applicant must have finished at least a full iron distance event at some time in the previous 3 years to the ULTRA520K
