Overview of this event
Australia's favourite swim-run is back for edition 26 in 2026!
MMJ Wollongong Aquathon is set to once again take to the stunning shores of Wollongong Boat Harbour, only 80 kilometres south of Sydney.
With a mix of five events featuring four swim-run 'aquathons' along with the popular Blue Mile 5 kilometre Fun Run, over 2500 participants, kids and up take part, creating a fun morning and amazing vibe.
Beginners, first timers, to those out for a longer challenge, there's a distance for you. Go solo, team up in the Aquathon (one swims, one runs), enter with the family, friends or group and dive in.
Wollongong Boat Harbour offers the perfect, more sheltered swim location before you set off along the famous blue mile for the run.
You will enjoy a super fun, professionally organised event that will be home to the 2025 World Triathlon Titles.
Entry includes awesome finisher medals, division prizes, spot prizes, stalls and sponsor giveaways.
Aquathon is a must-do, unique event experience that welcomes visitors from across Australia, locals and first timers to its many regulars and even international guests.
Join the fun, sign up now, support charity partner the Black Dog Institute and see for yourself why it's the marquee Aquathon in Australia for over 25 years!
