Horsham hosts many sporting events all year round, and one of the most prominent sports events is the Horsham Triathlon, an annual event held every February.
The Horsham Triathlon has grown in leaps and bounds over the years to make it a premier event that attracts thousands of competitors and spectators to Horsham each year.
Horsham Triathlon – 2019 Dates, Junior & Senior Registration, Victoria
The triathlon is broken down into junior and senior events, with the junior event held first.The senior event then follows where fitness enthusiasts and professional athletes can take part. The event continues to attract participants in increasing numbers every year because it seeks participation from both amateurs and professionals alike.
Participants can also form teams to compete at either level of the Horsham Triathlon, so if you are a strong runner but a weak swimmer, you can create a team to suit your strengths.
Regular people are encouraged to take part, you do not need to be a professional to participate. All ages, sizes and abilities are welcome and any bike or gear will do. Just get moving! There are courses with varied lengths to suit all abilities.
This year, there will also be a “Mini Tri” aimed for 15 year olds and under. So if you are interested in participating, come along and challenge yourself whilst you have fun!
Where do I find the course info – run, ride, swim distance?
Hi Alison,
There doesn’t appear to be any information released just yet for the 2019 event, but if the previous years are anything to go by, there will be both long and short course options, with:
Tri Long Course: 500m Swim, 20km Ride & 5km Run
Tri Short Course: 200m Swim, 7km Ride & 2.5km Run
There are also junior events with much shorter distances.
We’ll be sure to update our website once details become available.
Thanks,
Michael
