Women's Triathlon Specific Event Information

Registration

Registration will be held at Whitfords Nodes Beach Park the day before the event – 18th February 2012 from 1.00pm to 4.00pm. Here you will pick up your pre-allocated race number, coloured swim cap, race pack and race day information.

Merchandise will also be available for purchase and collection if you have pre-ordered.

If you are not able to attend in person, you may send someone on your behalf – please provide this person with a print out of your registration confirmation to take with them to registration. If you are in a team, it is only necessary for one person to attend.

We usually have a large number of incorrectly completed entry forms and, with over 1000 entrants, we can't possibly sort out all the problems before 7am on Sunday! So we appreciate your effort to collect your race pack the day before to ensure the event gets underway on time on Sunday.

Event Schedule                                   

Note: To be fair to all competitors, you will not be allowed to remove your bike from the transition area after you finish until all competitors have finished the bike leg and are on the run course - announcements will be made as each transition area is open.

Course Maps

Course maps are available above - click on 'Mini Tri', 'Short Tri' or 'Long Tri' on the tool bar at the top of this page to find the maps.

The Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES Triathlon

The Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES Mulitsport Series is to encourage and inspire children to adopt a healthy lifestyle whilst enjoying the experience and teach them that exercise can be fun. These events provide children aged 7 to 11 the opportunity to swim, cycle and run for enjoyment. It doesn’t matter how good they are at sport, it gives them the chance to challenge themselves, get healthy and active and boost their self esteem. The events aren’t timed, there’s no results, it’s all about participation and having a go.

At the Women's Triathlon, we will have a Girls Only Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLE triathlon for girls aged between 7 and 11 years. They can participate in a 100m Swim, 3km Cycle and 500m Run.

Volunteers and Event Crew will be positioned throughout the Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES course in order to guide and help them should they need it at any time throughout their event.

To Enter, click on the same button you would to enter the Women's Triathlon; select individual registration and when you are entering in your details, it will ask you to select your event - choose the Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES Triathlon.

Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES will then need to register on the Saturday before the event with the rest of the Women's Triathlon Participants.

At the end of their event Sunday Times Chillout! TADPOLES will be treated to breakfast on us as well as receive a finishers medal in memory of the event.
