About Coffs Harbour Triathlon Club

The Coffs Harbour Triathlon Club is based on the north NSW coast and enjoys the perfect climate and surroundings for the sport of triathlon.

Coffs Harbour Triathlon club is a growing club with around 140 members and has been in existence since 1985. We pride ourselves on being a friendly and social club which welcomes new members and visiting triathletes.

Our racing scene is very busy with the triathlon season running from September - May in and around the scenic Coffs Harbour Jetty. The usual distances are 500m swim, 18km cycle and 6km run but the format and distances occasionally differ to add an interesting change of variety to our races. The transition area is located in the Yacht Club car park.

During the cooler months of June - August our duathlon season takes place. These races consist of a run, cycle, run format and are an excellent way to stay in shape over Winter or for the beginner to introduce themselves to the exciting sport of triathlon.

Races are generally on the 1st and 3rd weekends of the month with occasional variations to fit in with the local triathlon calendar.

Pre-race briefing, 6:45AM

The club also has weekly group training sessions which we encourage both members and non-members to attend. Every Saturday morning at 8.00 AM a large number of swimmers gather at the Water Police Headquarters for an enjoyable swim in the harbour. Coffs Harbour Cruisers, a local running group, also use Saturday mornings for their runs which take place at a number of different locations around Coffs. These runs start at 6.30am and are usually about 10km long. Please feel free to join in these sessions as everyone is made to feel welcome no matter what your standard.

The club has a friendly social atmosphere with the racing being as serious or laid back as you wish to make it. Why not contact us and come see for yourself.
