Silver Sands Triathlon Update
We want to share an important update regarding the Silver Sands Triathlon.
After careful consideration and a lot of discussion behind the scenes, we’ve made the difficult decision to not proceed with the Silver Sands Triathlon this season.
This decision hasn’t been taken lightly. A combination of factors — most notably the ongoing impact of the algae bloom, uncertainty around water conditions, and the resulting effect on athlete confidence and event buy-in — has made it clear that proceeding this year wouldn’t deliver the experience you deserve, or be sustainable for us as an event business.
Our priority has always been athlete safety, event quality, and delivering events we’re proud of. Right now, the best decision is to pause Silver Sands and focus our energy on events where we can guarantee the strongest possible experience for everyone involved.
Looking Ahead
While Silver Sands won’t go ahead this year, we’re excited about what’s coming next:
RunMoana — our fast, coastal run event that’s already building incredible momentum
Sid James Victor Harbor Triathlon — locked in with a brand-new bike course
Murray Bridge Triathlon — returning and registrations launching soon
These events allow us to continue growing the community, supporting athletes of all levels, and delivering safe, high-quality race experiences.
We want to thank everyone who has supported Silver Sands over the years — the athletes, volunteers, partners, councils, and locals who have helped shape the event. This is a pause, not a goodbye, and we’ll continue to reassess opportunities for the future.
Thank you for your understanding and for continuing to support Pushing Limits Events. We’re genuinely excited about what’s ahead and can’t wait to see you on the start line soon.
