The Hibiscus Coast Weetbix Kids TRYathlon is on Sunday, March 24 and earlybird entries remain open until February 24.

The swim, cycle and running course in Manly Park and Beach is designed to be achievable for participants (individuals or teams of two) aged 7–15, with everyone receiving a medal from sports stars at the finish line.

This year Olympic kayaker Caitlin Ryan, Black Cap Jeet Raval, three Blues players, Black Ferns 7s captain Sarah Goss and triathlete Chris Dunn are taking part.

The TRYathlon begins with the swim leg in the ocean parallel to the beach.

The transition area is in Manly Park, the bike leg is in the streets surrounding the park, and the run leg is around Manly Park.
