Welcome to the OxMan

The OxMan is NZ’s newest long course triathlon incorporating a festival of race options to suit all athletes. As well as our long course triathlon/duathlon/aquabike (swim/bike) we have a Mini OxMan, a Junior OxMan for 10-16 year olds, a kids duathlon for 5-9 year olds, two Multisport distances and run only options over 21km and 7km distances. Teams and individuals are welcome.

Our event takes place in rural North Canterbury with quiet roads and a country feel. Event director John Newsom organises the Waitomo Triathlon Festival, Sea2Sky Challenge and JD Duathlon series where the focus is on getting the small details right. The aim with this event is to conduct a fairly priced event with some, but not all, the bells and whistles you get at Ironman and Challenge branded events.

Check out the event that appeals to you and get training.
