Just imagine the feeling...
The feeling you get when you cross the line after your first triathlon.
You've thought about it for long enough. Now's your chance to do it.
A 300m swim, 9km on the bike, and a 3 km run.
You can do this. You can be a triathlete.
The Myths of Triathlon
- Do I have to do the whole triathlon on my own?!
- Absolutely not. You can do the event as part of a team.
- I’m afraid of the swim!
- Most athletes are, but really, there’s no need to worry. As long as you can swim, you can float. Plus we will have Surf Lifesaving craft there to help you through.
- I haven’t got a ‘pro’ bike!
- You don’t need one. You can use your mate’s bike or even a mountain bike.
- But I look fat in togs!
- Hey, think about it – you’re going to spend most of the swim in the water! The fish don’t care and neither should you.
- I ain’t no Hamish Carter!
- You got that right, there’s only one Olympic Champion, but it didn’t stop millions of people around the world having a go at the sport last year.
