GETTING ACTIVE: Whanau Fun — Swim, Bike, Run! is expected to attract a diverse field of entrants. Picture supplied
IT’S the sort of event where you might walk the swim leg with a kid on your shoulders. Or complete the course with family by your side. Or push a stroller or race against your cousin.
What was once known as a community triathlon has become Whanau Fun — Swim,
Bike, Run! and it’s in Gisborne on Saturday, February 16, starting at 9am.
Eastland Triathlon and Multisports Club secretary Kate Ney said the event was rebranded three years ago.
Ney called it a “super-fun family event” with a relaxed vibe.
People could “rock up” on the day to give it a go and it tended to attract about 100 people.
