Toronto Island Triathlon and Duathlon
The event takes place Saturday August 14 and Sunday August 15 on Toronto Island, hosted west of Centre Island Beach with views of the Toronto skyline. Racing is held on the west side of the island near Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point.
Distances offered include:
- Give-It-A-Tri: 400m swim, 10km bike, 2.5km run
- Sprint Triathlon: 750m swim, 20km bike, 5km run
- Duathlon: 5km run, 20km bike, 2.5km run
The swim starts from Centre Island Beach where water temperatures generally range from 18 to 22 C; wetsuits are recommended but not required. The bike course uses quieter roads on the west side of the island and consists of multiple loops between Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point. The run returns toward Centre Island along shaded pathways.
Included in registration are a locally sourced custom finisher’s medal, a race specific T shirt in a casual sport cut, professional timing by Sportstats, post event food, draw prizes, and age group awards. Multi race discounts and reduced rates for U23 and U18 categories are available.
Logistics note: participants must purchase ferry tickets to reach the island and should allow time to collect race materials and board ferries. Water bottles are not supplied in single use plastic; participants are asked to bring a reusable bottle as water will be provided from jugs. Parking is available near the Westin Harbour Castle and at nearby paid lots. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
