TreX Port Stephens to host the Triathlon NSW State Championships and World Champs Qualifier

TreX takes the traditional format of triathlon and mixes it with a huge helping of heart, guts, dirt and off-road action.  The challenge is as much with mother nature as it is against other athletes.

NSW State Championships contenders will tackle a challenging 1,000m swim in beautiful Fingal Bay, followed by 29kms of heart pumping XC (Cross Country) mountain biking in Tomaree National Park, and then finishing off with an 8km trail run traversing the expansive coastal vistas that Port Stephens is famed for.
