Port Hood Triathlon The Port Hood Triathlon takes place in a beautiful little community, with breathtaking scenery on every leg of the race.

Our swim is an ocean, open water swim with temperatures reaching close to 18-20 degrees. Our bike and run courses have a couple of hills, but for the most part are fairly flat and fast. Make this your race to PR! Course maps will be emailed out later in July, as well as posted on our social media! This event is sanctioned by Triathlon Nova Scotia. IMPORTANT: A Triathlon Nova Scotia (TNS) 2022 memb
