Ngamotu Beach Reserve, New Plymouth
The Sanitarium Weet-Bix Kids TRYathlon in New Plymouth returns to Ngamotu Beach Reserve on 25 March 2026.
This annual series is designed for Kiwi kids aged 7 to 15 years to help them stay active and healthy through a programme of participation.
The TRYathlon will begin with the swim leg in the ocean parallel to the beach at Ngamotu. TRYathletes are generally able to stand-up during the short swim, however everyone is encouraged to give swimming a go! The Transition area is located on the access road near the reserve. The bike leg and the run leg are along the nearby ocean-side walkway.
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.
