About the race
The North Harbour Swim Run Race 1 is part of the Barfoot & Thompson Swim & Run series and is based at Takapuna Boating Club on The Strand, Takapuna, Auckland. The event offers two distance options: the main race comprising a 500 m swim and a 3 km run, and the "I'll Have a Half" option with a 250 m swim and a 1.5 km run. Team entries are permitted for the main event at the same price as individual entries; teams must be entered using the Teams option and include swimmer and runner names.
Online entry is available and participants new to Barefoot Sport must create a profile before entering. Online entry is open until 18:00 on the day, and on‑night entry is possible but participants should allow extra time and complete entry online before arriving. Prices listed for online entry are $20 for Seniors and $15 for Juniors, with a higher cash-only price on the night. Registration requires checking in at the registration desk to collect a timing chip, which must be returned after the race.
Prizes include cash for male and female winners and sponsor prizes for the first three male and female placegetters in the main event, plus spot prizes. The event is organised by the North Harbour Triathlon Club and run by club volunteers. Food and drinks are available at the boating club after the event. The event is open to anyone who can swim and run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
