About the race
SHE TRIs is a women and girls only triathlon held at the Mackay Aquatic and Recreation Centre (MARC) and the adjacent university precinct on Sunday 10 October 2027. The event offers three distance options with swim, bike and run legs conducted entirely off open roads and within the MARC pool and university car park and paths.
Distances:
- Kids TRI (ages 7–12): 100 m swim, 2.5 km bike, 800 m run
- The Dash (ages 12+): 200 m swim, 5 km bike, 1.6 km run
- The Enduro (ages 15+): 400 m swim, 10 km bike, 3.2 km run
The swim takes place in a 50 m MARC pool with pool marshals on duty. Bike laps are on off-road 2.5 km loops through the university car park; run legs use university paths and the MARC tartan track. Participants may compete solo or as a team with simple hand tap transitions; each solo or team receives one transition spot. Helmets meeting Australian standards are required for riders and bike rules specify mounting and dismount zones. The event is non-competitive across all distances and emphasizes a supportive environment and on-course safety. Registration is final within seven days of the event and entries are non refundable; limited transfers to future events are available for an administration fee. Emergency-driven course changes or cancellations may occur and entries will carry to rescheduled dates where applicable. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
