Event Overview
Triathlon Pink Sydney is held at Sydney Olympic Park, opening the Ramsay Health Care Triathlon Pink 2026/2027 season. The event date is 18 October 2026 and includes multiple swim-bike-run options, from kids races through to short, medium, long, and an ultra-distance format. The swim is conducted in a pool, and the bike leg is described as a closed-road course, with staggered start times across the morning.
What the Course Demands
With a pool swim and closed-road bike leg, the day is oriented around steady pacing and smooth transitions rather than managing open-water variables. Distances scale from very short junior formats up to 600m/18km/7.5km, so athletes should be prepared for a quicker, more continuous effort as the race length increases. Start times are spread across the morning, which can influence pre-race timing and warm-up routines.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits first-time triathletes looking for a controlled swim environment and a simplified bike setup, as well as returning participants who want to step up to a longer option. The range of categories also suits families and junior athletes, with specific kids distances and minimum ages listed. Athletes who prefer a shorter-format triathlon with straightforward logistics will generally find it a good fit.
