Mad Moto 2026

Mad Moto 2026 is a season-opening triathlon warmup at Long Pond with a short, technique-focused course. It combines a brief swim, bike, and run in waves (up to 12 per wave) and includes prizes and coaching observation opportunities.

Mad Moto 2026 is moving back to its usual season-opening spot! Registration is open! Thanks to TrainForTri for looking after the swim segment! This event serves as a warmup to what we hope is a full summer season of racing, and an intro to competition for those who have discovered triathlon in the last couple of years. It is ideal for young athletes, new triathletes, and experienced triathletes looking for a warmup/training event. The Mad Moto is conducted on a really short course: a 150 meter swim, 2.5 km bike, and a 1 km run. Athletes will race in waves of up to 12, with each wave completing before the next wave starts. Age categories include: 10 – 15 Junior & Adult A short, compact course concentrates on developing experience and technique in each aspect of triathlon (swim, bike, run, and transition) without the additional element of endurance. Coaches can easily observe each element of an athlete’s effort and provide feedback. We are encouraging club athletes to have their coaches at the event for such observations. Triathlon NL Cap Waves will start every half hour. We have a cap of only 84 participants, so be sure to sign up before it is too late! And there will be prizes/awards! Everyone will receive a high-quality TriNL swim cap, and there will be prizes for wave winners and the overall winners.
