Event Details
About This Event
A women-only triathlon in Bunbury, WA hosted by Bunbury Tri Club. Offering beginner-friendly Enticer and Sprint distances, this empowering event welcomes women of all ages and experience levels to cross the finish line.
Course Description
Set in the coastal city of Bunbury in Western Australia's South West, this women-only triathlon offers two accessible formats across a well-organised, welcoming course. The Enticer Distance features a 200-metre open-water swim, an 8km bike leg through the local area, and a 2km run to the finish. The Sprint Distance steps it up with a 300-metre swim, 12km ride, and a 3km run. Both courses are designed to be achievable for first-timers while still offering a rewarding challenge. The flat to gently rolling terrain suits athletes at any stage of their triathlon journey, and the event atmosphere is celebrated for being encouraging and community-focused.
