Event Details
Course Description
The race kicks off with a short swim at Collins Beach, offering clear waters and a scenic harbour backdrop. Athletes then transition to a 2 km walk to the bike leg, which follows the newly resurfaced North Scenic Drive – a flat, traffic‑free road that hugs the coastline. The run returns to the beachside paths, delivering a smooth, fast finish with panoramic views of Sydney Harbour. The course is well‑marked, marshalled and features minimal elevation change, making it both fast and enjoyable for competitors seeking a classic coastal triathlon experience.
Getting There
The event is held at North Head, Manly, Sydney. Arrive early – the race schedule recommends being at the transition area by 5:30 am. For parking, public transport options and detailed directions, please refer to the official event website.
Weather & What to Pack
March is autumn in Australia, so expect mild conditions at North Head. Typical highs are around 22‑23 °C with lows near 15 °C and low rainfall. Dress in light layers, bring a hat and sunscreen, and stay hydrated – a light jacket for a possible breeze is advisable.
