Event Overview
Northern Beaches Triathlon Series Race 6 is hosted by Warringah Triathlon Club at North Head in Manly, NSW, with a scheduled start of 6:30am on Sunday 12 April 2026. The event offers two triathlon formats: Enticer and Sprint. Transition and race-day operations are based around the North Fort area, and athletes should allow time to move between transition and the start area. Results are electronically timed with segment splits.
What the Course Demands
This race is known for flat, fast bike and run legs, which can reward steady pacing and consistent cadence. A distinctive feature is the long first transition: both triathlon formats include an approximate 2km run from the swim to the bike before settling into the ride. That extended T1 can influence early effort management and equipment choices for speed and simplicity, particularly when exiting the water and heading into the bike leg.
Who This Event Suits Best
With Enticer and Sprint options, the event generally suits athletes building experience in triathlon as well as those wanting a short-format race to practise execution. The flat profile can suit athletes targeting controlled, even pacing rather than sustained climbing. It can also work well for athletes who like repeatable courses across a season, since it sits within the Northern Beaches Triathlon Series calendar.
