2025 Tri for Charity Challenge

It’s not about being the fastest…

…it’s about nailing your strategy.

Build a team. Back your community. Whether you’re racing with mates, colleagues, or your club, this is your chance to test your teamwork and support something bigger than the finish line.

Every dollar raised goes to Macquarie HomeStay, helping families stay close when medical treatment takes them far from home. Your effort on race day gives them comfort, connection, and one less thing to worry about.

In the 2025 Tri for Charity, it’s not about crossing first — it’s about how closely your team matches your own estimated time.

No elite gear, no pro splits — just smart pacing, teamwork, and knowing your limits.

Your Race Begins…

SWIM - 500m RIDE - 18km RUN - 4km

Your race begins with a scenic 500m swim under the iconic LH Ford Bridge, cruising downstream along the Macquarie River. Exit at the boat ramp and charge up the tar path toward transition.

Mount your bike (after crossing safely) and head south along the open stretch of Bligh Street. Settle into your rhythm, then hang a right at the T-intersection onto Macquarie Street for a smooth, scenic out-and-back ride. Hit the turnaround at 9km and push for home.

Back at transition, it’s time to switch gears. The run takes you along the river path, twice (two x 2km loops) with a wide-open finish line waiting at the end.
