The race format is a swim of 200m, a road bike ride of 6km and a run of 1km, repeated three times continuously.
Options:
Team Tag Tri – where each person does a complete triathlon before tagging their next team member on the beach.
Team Tri – where a specialist swimmer, cyclist and runner alternate, completing each discipline three times in the race order.
Loose cannons – you really want to do all nine stages alone, or get eight friends together to do a stage each (or some other combination)? Go for it.
This takes a bit of organisation, so start getting your team together now.
Standard entry is $30 per registration. Team entry is also $30 – there will be no age groups for teams – just a team category.
