The Sanitarium Weet-Bix Kids TRYathlon in Nelson returns to Tahunanui Reserve on 8 March 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 will begins with a swim leg on Tahunanui Beach in the ocean, parallel to the beach. TRYathletes are generally able to stand-up during the short swim, however everyone is encourages to give swimming a go! The Transition area is located on the recreation fields. The bike leg is around the streets surrounding Tahunanui Recreation Ground, and the run leg is around Tahunanui Recreation Ground 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.
