The Lidl Setubal Triathlon involves a 1.9 km swim in the Rio Sado, followed by a 90 km bike course and a 21.1 km run through Setubal. This middle-distance triathlon in Portugal typically takes place in May, offering options for individual competitors and relay teams. HMS Sports coordinates the event with the Setubal city council, and it is a federated race with age-group categories and prizes.
The course begins in open water, proceeds through central Setubal, and extends towards the Serra da Arrabida. Participants encounter both urban roads and a more challenging natural terrain, differing from a simple out-and-back route. The event includes technical briefings, equipment collection, bike checks, transition bag management, aid stations, mechanical support, live timing, and a penalty area for rule violations. Relay teams have a dedicated Setubal Team Zone, and the race village features an exhibition area and official apparel like shirts and hoodies.
