Individual entry – 1 athlete completes all disciplines
Team entry – 2 or 3 athletes race as a relay team (the team works together to finish the race with one person swimming, another person cycling and a third person (or the swimmer/cyclist if a team of two) running. Team members do not each complete all disciplines.

The race an athlete may enter is automatically determined by their age on 31 December 2023.

Athletes aged 12+ must race with a timing chip. It is also the only way to get an official time. A timing chip must be bought during race entry and is charged at R50 per person.

* Excluding TSA day licence of R50 per person (if applicable)
** 8-11 year old races are free but athletes must be entered online (no late entry or race day entry allowed)

You earn your spot for the Showdown race. You can’t enter for this race.
Race and finish your sprint triathlon. Then sit back and relax while we check the fastest 20 individual finisher times (combined males and females across all waves). KINDLY NOTE: no team times will be considered for this race. No athletes racing in the super sprint race will be considered for this race.

These 20 athletes will race once more to determine the winner of the day in a super sprint race:
400m swim
10km bike
2.5km run

There are 9 prizes up for grabs (as determined only by the Showdown race times):
Top 3 swim times
Top 3 bike times
Top 3 run times

Want to win more prizes? Then earn more top 3 times in Showdown!

Example: the race winner had a top 3 swim time and top 3 bike time and thus wins 2 prizes.

Time trial bicycles (TT bicycles) are not allowed (this includes clip-on bars and bicycles with integrated aero bars).
The only types of bicycles allowed are standard road bicycles and standard mountain bikes.
The races are draft legal, meaning you are allowed to draft behind the person in front of you.

Wetsuits are allowed but are not compulsory.
