About the Triathlon

We are back for the 21st annual event on Sunday July 23!

​

The Savary Island Fun Triathlon is a registered non-profit that aims to support the Savary Island Volunteer Fire Department (SIVFD) and bring the community together annually for a family-friendly event. The triathlon is typically held in mid to late July, and draws up to 100 participants and many more spectators and volunteers! In recent years, $1,000 has been donated annually to the SIVFD. 

​

We invite families and friends of all fitness levels to challenge themselves to achieve their personal bests. Participants can enter as Teams or Individuals, and choose between the Recreational and Competitive divisions.

 

The race course takes participants across the full length of beautiful Savary Island: through the ocean, along the sandy roads, and even through a forest trail. The race has always started with a procession down Malaspina Boulevard led by members of the Clansman Pipe Band.

 

The race is sanctioned by Triathlon BC. Additional race support is generously offered by Steve Mattina and Karen Warrendorf from the Running Room.
