Kiwiman Xtreme Triathlon

22/01/2025

"‘Kiwiman is too hard for me!’ We hear it all the time - but take a look at these views. Stunning beaches, national parks, winding open roads, scenic lakes, artistic bridges, and the beautiful Taranaki Maunga.

This isn’t just a race - it’s a journey. A challenge to push yourself to the limits while soaking in the rugged beauty of Taranaki.
No aid stations, no roaring crowds at the finish line - just you, your thoughts, your support crew, and a group of like-minded athletes cheering each other on.

We’re all in this together, including us event organisers and volunteers who are right there with you every step of the way. Ready to take on the ultimate challenge? Let’s make it happen. 💪

Behold the breathtaking circle captured in this satellite image – Egmont National Park, a true gem nestled in New Zealand. At its core, the majestic Mount Taranaki stands proudly, a towering 2,518 meters (8,261 feet) of stratovolcanic splendor, with its flawless symmetry captivating all who gaze upon it. This geologically young giant began its turbulent journey around 135,000 years ago, its volcanic pulse last felt between 1755 and 1800, with another surge of activity in the 1850s or 1860s, marked by the dramatic collapse of a lava dome. The park’s distinct boundary, edged by lush, vibrant wilderness, showcases the nation's unwavering commitment to preserving the beauty of nature, creating a stunning contrast to the bustling urban landscapes that dominate other regions.

We are thrilled to welcome back Kiwiman athletes, especially our international participants!
