The Vegetarian Triathlon is a community event which is designed for all fitness levels, ages and interests. All are welcome to participate in the Vegetarian Triathlon – if you are not already vegetarian; all you have to do is go vegetarian for one month before the event. You’ll learn about vegetarian lifestyle, do your health a favour, enjoy great food as well as be eligible to join the tri as a participant.  It’s easy!

If you are already vegetarian, this is our day where our community comes together. It is an event which celebrates being vegetarian in a healthy active way whilst highlighting the many positive impacts of our lifestyle for the planet, animals and health.

The First Vegetarian Triathlon will be held in Christchurch, New Zealand at 3pm on February 28th, 2010. The event is being organized by the Christchurch Vegetarian Centre, a branch of the New Zealand Vegetarian Society. This event is built on the Centre's success and experience of organising the five Vegan Triathlons which were held from 2005-2009. www.vegantriathlon.org.nz

We look forward to seeing you at the first Vegetarian Triathlon.
