Winnipeg Indoor Triathlon
TriMB is excited to partner with the University of Manitoba for another year of Indoor Triathlon!
A different type of racing, designed to challenge new and experienced triathletes, while making it easier than ever to take the start line.
Held on Saturday, March 15th, the race format is simple — swim, bike & run for a set amount of time as indicated below. The farther you go within the time, the more points you score! Races will be held in waves of a maximum of 12 participants per wave. Wave start times will be communicated after registration closes.
Adult Long Course – 15min Swim / 20min Bike / 15min Run
Adult Short Course – 10min Swim / 15min Bike / 10min Run
Youth/Junior Course – 10min Swim / 15min Bike / 10min Run
All racing takes place indoors at the U of M facility, with swimming in the Joyce Fromson Pool, before bike (stationary bikes are provided) and run at the Jim Daley Fieldhouse at Max Bell Centre. Your swim laps will be counted, the bike computer will provide your distance and your running laps will be counted. Transition is simple and stress free. A set amount of time is provided to everyone to transition from the pool to bike (15 minutes), and bike to run (5 minutes), so everyone in each wave transitions at the same time. No one gets left behind!
Being fast or slow only matters to you – everyone swims, bikes, and runs for the same amount of time. You can tear up the course and try to set a PD, or take it easy at your open pace.
NOTE 1 – When registering, select “Indoor Triathlon” from the first menu, then scroll down and click search to load the Triathlon registration options

Peace Garden Triathlon
The best course in Manitoba isn’t actually in Manitoba
If you haven’t yet been out to the Peace Garden event, you’re missing something truly special. Triathlon takes over the Garden for one weekend a year, with participants enjoying the most amazing triathlon playground you could imagine. Even the campground is a dream, or there are the dorms which will be full of other triathletes to hang out with all weekend.
Need more convincing? Check out Photos from previous years.
NOTE – When travelling to the Peace Garden, you DO NOT enter the United States, nor do you deal with US Customs and Border Protection. The Peace Garden exists between the two border controls, similar to a duty free area, so you will require a passport or other ID for the Canadian border control on your way home, but you do not enter the United States or deal with their agents at any time.
Two days of great racing in a venue that’s perfect for triathlon.
Day 1 features the Mixed Relay, which has been one of the most enjoyable additions to Triathlon in ages – if you haven’t tried one, you’re missing out. The race involves four racers, each doing a shorter swim/bike/run race, then handing off to the next member of their team. Here’s what it looks like for Triathlon – also note the bonus points for Tyler’s greatest beach dive of all time!*
What makes it better still at the Peace Garden? You get to choose your team – family, friends, fastest people you know or funniest people you know, pick the team you want to be on. The course distance for each relay leg is suitable for ages 12 and up, so even younger families can compete. One of you doesn’t swim – that’s fine too, just get someone else to swim twice. Four little triathlons, however you want to do it – that’s the Peace Garden Mixed Relay!
“Won’t Someone Think of the Children!”
The mixed relay course is a similar distance to those used for 12 & older Kids of Steel races. The course features a challenging bike and deep water swim, so it’s not a course we’d recommend for a younger athlete’s first triathlon participation, but most athletes that age or older should be comfortable competing.
“Day Two – This Time It’s Personal”
Day two features individual racing, with triathlon and duathlon options, over the Sprint or Olympic distances. You’ll know the swim, bike and run terrain quite well from hopefully having raced the day prior, which means you can enjoy the challenge of a few more km in this beautiful venue and maybe even push yourself to a new level.
However you choose to participate, we’re sure you won’t find a better way to spend August long weekend than racing and playing the International Peace Garden.
This year’s Sprint Triathlon events will be the Provincial Championship as well as a World Qualifier event, as will the Mixed Relay, where the top age group female and male athletes can make their way onto the Canadian Age Group World Championship Team, for the 2026 World Triathlon Championship Final held in Pontevedra, Spain.
To be eligible for World Championship Qualification in the Sprint Triathlon, you must hold a Triathlon Manitoba Annual Membership and complete an Expression of Interest PRIOR to the event on August 3rd.
** – That’s a professional athlete on a closed course. Do NOT try that at home!

2026 Kids Program – Fall & Winter
Train like a triathlete year round
Our Kids Fall & Winter Program is designed for athletes who want to grow their fitness, develop strength in swimming, biking, and running, while building confidence in a supportive team environment.
The program runs from October to April, and is targeted at youth aged 8 –15 years (born 2010–2018), to develop fitness and strength for all three sports.
Saturday sessions are designed for all athletes and take place at the Pan Am Pool from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Begin with a run fitness workout, followed by swim training in the pool.
Registration for Saturday-only sessions is $200 for six months.
Annika Niblock and Darian Hole will continue as our program coaches.
Annika is a graduate of the TriMB Youth & MTC Programs, competed in triathlon at the 2019 Western Canada Summer Games, and is currently pursuing a degree in Environmental Studies at the University of Manitoba. Darian is a former MTC athlete, having competed as part of Team Manitoba at the 2013 Canada Summer Games, and he brings a wealth of experience from his years in the sport.
Our coaches are keen to help the next generation of athletes fall in love with triathlon by sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm for our sport.
NOTE – While this program will help athletes develop better swim technique, it’s not intended to be a learn-to-swim program. All athletes should be able to comfortably complete 100m of steady swimming (enough to access the deep end in most local pools) before beginning the program.
A 2026 Triathlon Season membership must be purchased with each Kids Program Registration, which provides insurance for all workout participants, as well as a racing licence for the season ahead. The Kids of Steel memberships are $15, plus CCN processing fees.
The video below gives a great idea of what to expect at our Kids Programs.

Sessions will run for 8 sessions – starting the week of October 20th until the week of December 15th (November 10th and 12th will be a week off for the program). The program will include video capture sessions, enabling athletes to receive direct feedback on their stroke mechanics and the improvements they make throughout the program.
Target Audience:
– Athletes with prior experience of triathlon swimming/racing, likely those who learned to swim as adults and looking to gain efficiency in their swimming
(Our Intro to Triathlon Swimming will run again in Jan-Mar 2026 for newbies)
