EVES Surfbreaker Triathlon

The EVES Surbreaker Triathlon breaks from the tradition & has the swim leg at the Mount Main beach in the surf. This iconic event celebrated 40 years in 2024 & some great names of NZ Triathlon have won here. Come along & enjoy the fun.

The event has 3 distances to offer:
- A Sprint Distance race of 750m swim, 20km bike & 5km run finishing with a soft-sand run along the Main Beach
- A Super Sprint race of 375m swim, 7km bike & 2.5km run finishing with a soft-sand run along the Main Beach
- An Aquathon race of 750m swim & 5km run finishing with a soft-sand run along the Main Beach

There is a 6 legged Elite Triathlon race which was implemented in 2017 & we have seen some amazing racing since then. With an amazing amount of local talent now racing short course, we hope to see some great racing in 2026. Hopefully the Grand Final 2028 will attract some major Triathlon stars to stay & train in NZ.

Entries open 1st July 2026.

This event is a very social occasion during the holiday season so grab a mate & do it as a Team or enter as an Individual & have some holiday fun.

Come & experience the race & make it the best day of your Xmas holidays.
