Nepean Triathlon

At a venue described as "one of the best venues in Australia," the Nepean Triathlon feels like a long-running competitor's event rather than a polished one-off. It has been held for over 40 years and has "drawn athletes from all over the world," suggesting the fundamentals are solid: a clear layout, swift racing, and many experienced participants. The course is noted as fast, flat, and traffic-free, with "ample spectator opportunities" and a finish "in front of the main grandstand." Individuals, teams, Clydesdales, Athenas, and mixed squads are catered for, alongside separate events for younger racers. A notable feature is Race Ya Mates: there are no podium finishers, only bragging rights, making it a "great event to challenge your mates" without every start needing to be taken with utmost seriousness.
