The Sanitarium Weet-Bix Kids TRYathlon in Christchurch returns to Jellie Park, Burnside on 22 February 2026.
This annual series is designed for Kiwi kids aged 6 to 15 years to help them stay active and healthy through a programme of participation.
The TRYathlon begins with the swim leg in the heated outdoor pool at the Jellie Park Recreation & Sport Centre. The Transition area is located on the field outside of the pool complex. The bike leg is around the streets surrounding Jellie Park, and the run leg is around Jellie Park itself.
The triathlon can be done solo or in a team of two; in two person teams, one team member completes the swim, one team member completes the cycle and both complete the run.
There is also a 'Splash n Dash' aquathon event for 6 year olds.
