Full details will follow shortly, but the event allows solo entry or entry as a team of 3. The course includes riding on roads and trails, so more than just a road bike will be needed, with TriMB’s transition racks getting their first outing since February’s Beat the Cold event!!
More details will be added as available.

January 2021
Strava Challenge
We have a New Strava Club that we’d love for you to join.
While the club is a great way to stay connected with local triathletes, while learning and sharing new or favourite training routes, it also helps us set up and track the types of challenges we have planned for our members in 2021.
For our first challenge of 2021, we celebrate the job of the Beat the Cold team in delivering a route for the 2020 edition of the race, when unprecedented fall flooding meant no river trails were available for the event. That event used a 2.5km loop that crossed three bridges and took us all around The Forks.
Our January Challenge is to ride or run that loop. There’s no reward for doing it fast, just get out and do it and we’ll enter your name into the draw for prizes.
If you’re a member of our Strava Club, we’ll see your results on the Bike Leaderboard or Run Leaderboard pages, which we can filter for TriMB Club members to see every member who completed that segment in January.
If you’re not on Strava or if that segment is too far from where you live, no worries there either – just ride or run 2.5km in your own neighbourhood and let us know by tagging us on your post, sharing it with us on social media or even by e-mail. We want to include everyone, both to share the motivation and because our prizes are pretty awesome too!!
Finally, we require that anyone taking part in these challenges always respect the rules of the road, any public orders or restrictions in the region and behave in a way respectful to all other road or trail users.

When you send us a screenshot of your completed course (including a selfie or group shots of your relay team), tell us why you decided to race this year. Please email by 6:00 p.m. CST to be entered into the daily draw prize. Any emails sent after 6:00 p.m. will carry over and be drawn with the next days entries.
The best part about this race?

Supporting Athletes’ Mental Health
For many athletes, that uncertainty can lead to anxiety, depression and other mental health struggles. That’s why we’re pleased to support Sport Manitoba Coaching and their decision to open this talk to the general public.
March 2021
Spring Brick Challenge
The Brick Workout is unique to Triathlon.
For the month of March, our Challenge Series celebrates one of the elements that makes triathlon such a great sport – Transitions. This month we’re inviting everyone to complete a Brick Workout – go for a bike ride, and as soon as you finish, transition straight into a run. And we’re happy to offer rewards to help motivate your efforts.
(Do you remember how this feels?)
What is Required?
To enter, complete a bike workout that transitions to a run workout. Given that it’s Manitoba in Spring, we’ll allow a bit of time for transition (30 minutes or less?), but as long as you complete a bike and run shortly after, you’ve qualified.
Once you’ve done your brick, send us some proof via e-mail or by tagging us on social media. Links to Strava, Garmin or any other platform are fine, as are screen shots from a phone, a photo of your watch or even a quick note to say what you did. However you track things, we’ll get you entered, as these challenges are all about motivating people to get outside and enjoy our sport.
Where is the Course?
You’re welcome to use whatever route and distance you’d like for this challenge, so the course is wherever you make it. There is no minimum distance for either segment. We only ask that you respect any public health orders in place and ensure you respect all rules of the road and other road or trail users. This challenge is entirely about getting out and doing it, so there are no points for going faster, just for going out!
What are the Prizes?
Each week, we’ll draw for two prizes – a $50 gift card to one of our four sponsors (listed below) and a free entry to April Run Series. We’ll keep the entries from each week in the draw for the week following, and you can earn one qualification each week, so if you do four bricks through the month of March, you’ll have 2 chances to win a prize in week 1, 4 chances in week 2, 6 in week 3 and 8 in week 4. That’s 20 chances to win!!
Draws will be made on March 8th, 15th, 22nd and April 1st. To qualify for each period, you’ll need to submit by March 7th, 14th or 21st at midnight. For the final draw, the cut-off will be 8:30am on April 1st, so we can include as many submissions as possible. And again, if you submit an entry before March 7th, it will be in every subsequent draw as well (or until you win). You’re welcome to submit on multiple weeks, but we will only offer one entry per weekly submission… just in case there’s some budding star out there who’s doing bricks every day.

If you have any other questions, please get in touch.
Otherwise, we hope to see you out there Biking & Running around Manitoba this March!!

May Long-Run Challenge
Our goal for this challenge is to achieve the Best Long Run we can – whatever that means to you.
What defines a great run for you? Speed & distance; conversation & company; nature & challenge? All of the above? However you measure a great long run, our challenge to you in the month of May is to find a safe and healthy way to turn that up to 11.
We’re also hoping you’ll share your stories and route ideas with our community, so we can all find great adventures in 2021. Every entry, whether a run story or route, will be entered to a weekly draw for $50 gift cards from our sponsors and entry into other TriMB events.
To get the ball rolling, here’s a route I can offer from last year, when we set the challenge to run the trails around Caddy Lake:

Men’s Olympic Triathlon Event
Celebrate & Enjoy Our Sport
Before cheering Manitoba’s Top Triathlete on the Biggest Stage!!
Birds Hill Park has long served as a hub for triathlon in Manitoba, hosting the 1999 Pan Am Games, the 2017 Canada Games, countless local events and workouts. On July 25th, we invite you to join us in the Park as we cheer Manitoba’s most successful triathlete Tyler Mislawchuk in the Olympic Triathlon Event.
The Tokyo Olympic Games have scheduled the Men’s Triathlon event for Monday, July 26th at 6:30am Tokyo time… which is 4:30pm on Sunday, July 25th in Manitoba.
Here’s the plan:
- Come to Birds Hill Park for an afternoon of swimming, biking and/or running of your choice
- Join us at the Winnipeg Folk Festival parking area from 4:00 onwards, as race coverage begins
- Parking attendants will assign you a parking spot, which will ensure we abide by all provincial health orders
- TriMB will rent several large screen TVs and sound system to ensure everyone has a good seat for the show
- Watch the World’s best at their best and cheer Tyler towards Olympic success
We will have food from Willy Dogs on-site and bathroom facilities available as well, but you’re certainly welcome to bring food and drink of your own if you wish, and we’d recommend camp chairs or blankets too. We can’t allow alcoholic beverages, as our insurance doesn’t provide such coverage.
PRE-REGISTRATION ONLY to manage event numbers under PHOs
Entry cost is $5 per person – limited to 150 people, with no additional processing fees or taxes – we wanted to make it as accessible to everyone as we could, while still tracking registration through CCN to ensure our event complies fully with Provincial Public Health Orders and allows safe distancing so everyone registered can fully enjoy the event.
Hope to see you there to celebrate our sport and cheer what could be the biggest moment in our history!

Beat The Heat virtual Triathlon – CANCELLED
1JustCity has opted to hold off launching this event in 2021, but looks forward to hosting our local triathlon community again in February 2022 for a hopefully-non-virtual Beat the Cold Winter Triathlon.
Beat the Heat is our new summer triathlon hosted by 1JustCity and TriFactor where weekend warriors, super athletes, and fun-letes alike will run, bike, walk, hike, rollerblade, and more in the sweltering August heat.
The Event
Beat the Heat, 1JustCity’s summer version of our winter triathlon Beat the Cold, was created as a way to raise money for our summer programming and help families create blissful summer memories.
From July 30 to August 10, beat the summer heat and race to raise money to help us create incredible, meaningful summer experiences for Winnipeg’s underloved.
Just like Beat the Cold, Beat the Heat runs for 10 days to give racers the opportunity to be flexible with their time and creative with their sports and outfits!
The Race
For Beat The Heat, there’s only one race option: create your own course with your choice of summer sports and location! You can choose whichever routes and sports you’d like, but your race MUST have 3 distinct legs. There is no minimum distance, but just make sure you have 3 race legs.
To track your race and be entered into our daily prize draws, use the Strava app (or any other GPS app) and send screenshots of your completed race to beattheheat at 1justcity.ca
Entries must be submitted by 6 p.m. on the day you completed your race in order to be counted. Otherwise, they’ll carry over into the next day’s entries and be drawn then.
In the email, please include a picture of yourself, your race activities, the screenshots of your completed race, and a short blurb about why you decided to beat the heat this year. Unless stated otherwise in your email to us, your post may be used to promote the event on social media.
The Cause
1JustCity’s mission is to create a Winnipeg where everyone is welcomed, supported, celebrated and empowered. To bring us closer to achieving our mission, every summer at 1JustCity we make sure that all Winnipeg families can build meaningful memories together through our summer programming. 1JustCity organizes family trips to the beach and museum, large BBQs, and berry picking, PowWow clubs, outdoor scavenger hunts, and more! For many kids, these are the stories they’re able to tell their friends back at school in the fall, where they had the opportunity to feel belonging, connection, and not be left out of the fun.

Iron-August Challenge
3.8k SWIM: 180k BIKE : 42.2k RUN
You won’t need to do it all in one day or all by yourself, but that’s our challenge for late August 2021. It’s up to you whether this challenge sees you join up with friends to log miles; achieve your biggest ever week of activity; complete three amazing endurance workouts in a week or endure one crazy day you’ll remember forever.
Record one workout and you’re already entered to win, but you can earn more entries with each discipline you submit, combining workouts with transitions and by completing the Iron-distance for each discipline. Here’s how the scoring will work:
3.8k of swimming = 300 points
180k of biking = 300 points
42k of running = 300 points
Brick transition (bike to run) = 50 points*
Swim transition (any type) = 50 points*
If you’re following along, that means doing a 3.8k swim, 180k bike and 42k run all as one workout (2 transitions) means you’d earn 1000 points, but that’s a long, hard day and there are plenty of other options to score points.
In example two, if you ride 60k, that’s 1/3 of 180k, so you’ve earned 100 points. Running 7k earns you 50 points, because that’s 1/6 of 42k. We’ll also offer two options (* each can only be earned once) to score transition points – 50 points for connecting a bike and run to a brick workout and another 50 points for any workout-double-up that includes a swim. However you do it, every effort scores some points for you or your team.
As mentioned above, you’ll get a bonus entry for every discipline you complete. Challengers completing the full distance for all three events earn an additional three entries, but probably not a belt buckle unless this really takes off. And if you keep going, you’ll still earn more points and entries – the fun never stops!
So how do you record workouts?
We’ve prepared a Google Form, which seemed the easiest way for everyone to log workouts. On Monday, after our first weekend of workouts, we’ll share updates so you can see where your team or individual efforts have you on the board, and we’ll work to provide daily updates after that so you can track your progress and challenge your friends.
Daily draw prizes will include $50 gift cards from our sponsors below, plus entries for the upcoming Peace Garden Triathlon. Additional prizes will be awarded to top finishers in the team and individual categories.

September 2021
Peace Garden Triathlon – CANCELLED
Cancelled due to adjusted border protocols related to COVID-19
A change in protocol for at the Canadian Border, crossed upon return from the Peace Garden, means that children under the age of 12 are no longer exempt from required testing or self-isolation when travelling with fully vaccinated adults (as had previously been communicated). While we appreciate the efforts to keep Manitoba’s children & schools safe, this latest change means several key volunteers, as well as many athletes with families, would no longer be available to attend the event.
As a result, the event is unable to take place in 2021 and will look forward to returning in July of 2022.
The Peace Garden Triathlon will take place on Saturday, September 25th.
For 2021, the event will feature a reduced schedule to simplify our return to live racing, with Sprint Distance Triathlon and Duathlon options. Importantly, the Sprint Distance Triathlon will also be a qualifier for Age Group Team Canada towards the 2022 World Triathlon Championships in Montreal, Canada.
Those who attended the inaugural event in 2019 already know how amazing this course is. The swim is in the quiet lake. The bike course is an amazing rollercoaster on closed roads. And the run course is the most beautiful location you can imagine – with a finish right on the Canada/US border!
Have a look through the photos from the 2019 event if you need any more proof – this is as good as race venues gets!
