Ocean Lava Metalkas Triathlon Polska Bydgoszcz Borowno 2026

Ocean Lava Metalkas Triathlon Polska Bydgoszcz-Borówno is a triathlon held in Bydgoszcz and Borówno, part of the Ocean Lava Planet Series and organized by Triathlon Polska.

The event began in 1997, giving it a longer history than many newer triathlons. Participants can enter as individuals, teams, or relays, with prizes for age groups, relay teams, and open categories. A Kids Duathlon is also available for younger athletes. The organizers highlight the course as very fast, and some descriptions refer to the Borówno race as an off-road MTB cross triathlon near Bydgoszcz.
