About the race
The North Harbour Swim Run Race 2 is one race in a nine-race Barfoot & Thompson Swim & Run series held from the Takapuna Boating Club in Takapuna, Auckland. This single-event entry is available separately, or participants can choose a series entry that covers all races.
Race distances offered for this event are a main course of 500 m swim and 5 km run, plus an "I'll Have a Half" option of 250 m swim and 2.5 km run. Team entries are permitted for the main event at the same price as individual entries; teams require the swimmer and runner names at entry.
Online entry is open until the evening of the event and on-the-night online entry is possible but the organizer asks entrants to allow extra time if entering after arrival. Standard online fees are listed for Seniors and Juniors; cash entry is available at a higher fee. All competitors must check in at registration on the night to collect a timing chip, and timing chips must be returned after the race.
Prizes include cash awards for male and female winners of the main event, sponsor prizes for the top three male and female placegetters in the main event, and spot prizes; prizes for the Half depend on numbers on the night. The event is organised and operated by volunteers from the North Harbour Triathlon Club. Food and drinks are available at the Takapuna Boating Club after the event.
