Cr Chris Thompson - Kawana's Pink Triathlon

Kawana’s Pink Triathlon

Registrations for the all-female Ramsay Health Care Triathlon Pink on November 30 are open now.

The triathlon is the latest in a series of sporting championships and fun runs to be held at Sunshine Coast Stadium and Kawana Sports Precinct.

It’s the fifth year Sunshine Coast Stadium has hosted Triathlon Pink, which is a nationwide triathlon event.

The triathlon starts at Kawana Aquatic Centre for the swim leg, transitions onto the bike leg from the sports fields onto Sportsmans Parade and finishes with a picturesque run along Lake Kawana foreshore.

The Ramsay Health Care Triathlon Pink series has raised more than $1.4 million for the National Breast Cancer Foundation, The McGrath Foundation, Breast Cancer Network Australia and Mater chicks in pink for breast cancer support, education, research and advocacy.

You can register for the Triathlon Pink at www.triathlonpink.com.au/entry-info.
