2022 Triathlon National Series
Just one month after the conclusion of the Duathlon series, it’s time to hit the water for the first race of the Triathlon National Series.
This year’s National Series is larger and more varied than ever before. Over the course of four months, 27 races will host rounds of the series in locations right around the country.
With 14 sprint distance races, 7 standard (aka Olympic distance) and seven middle distance events there’s no end of ways to build your season with the Series.
Athletes must race four (one sprint, one standard/middle/long and two of any distance) for a final score and to be in with the chance of winning an Age Group of overall prize at the end of the season.
Youth Series Supported by Costcutter
In June the Youth Series supported by Costcutter makes its return for a second season!
Last year was an amazing summer of racing for our teenage triathletes with incredible performances, lots of can-do attitude and buckets of fun.
Over nine rounds athletes will get to compete across duathlons, aquathlons, and triathlons for the top prizes in three age groups.
Scoring is based on the highest accumulated points across an athlete’s best three (3) events across the series.
National Championships 2022
And finally, there are no fewer than 14 national championship titles up for grabs in 2022, hosted by 13 fantastic races. Winning a national title is the ultimate honour for a domestic triathlete and 2022 will bring varied and exciting opportunities for overall and Age Group honours.
