The Peace Region is known for its warm hospitality, making this the ideal event for families, first-time participants, and seasoned athletes alike.

About Triathlon
Triathlon, developed in the 1970s and introduced to the Olympic Games in 2000, combines three disciplines—swimming, cycling, and running—into one continuous race. Distances range from beginner-friendly Try-a-Tris and Sprint races to Olympic and long-distance endurance events.

Kids of Steel Program
The Kids of Steel race is a fantastic way to introduce young athletes to the world of triathlon. By participating in swimming, biking, and running, kids build confidence, improve overall fitness, and develop well-rounded athletic skills.

  • Parents may assist children under 5 throughout the course
  • Transition support is allowed for ages 6–9
  • Flotation aids (life jackets, flutter boards) are encouraged for young swimmers

Whether you're racing, cheering, or exploring, the Peace River TriRiver Triathlon is more than an event—it’s a celebration of community, adventure, and the return of a much-loved tradition.

Come be part of the comeback.
