Maitland Triathlon with return for the 20th anniversary at Morpeth due to the support of Quarry Mining. As a massive supporter of cycling and multisport events in the Hunter Region, Quarry Mining has become the naming rights sponsor of the event for 2018. And they will also 'walk the talk', with around 15 of their staff lining up to participante in the event. This is all part of the great team work and health and fitness focus the company has for staff and clients.
Last years return was a huge success and, one of the oldest Triathlons in NSW, will again be held in the historic village of Morpeth in the Hunter Valley. And the old format will also return with 3 events to pick from.
