A series of events aimed at introducing Clutha people to walking, duathlon and triathlon events has begun.
The Clutha Country summer series started at Milton in mid-January.
Sport Clutha co-ordinator Tiny Carruthers said there were 16 categories, from primary school to masters, including individual and team triathlons as well as walking events.
The run and walk events vary between 4km to 4.5km, while primary schoolchildren run and cycle under 2km and swim 100m.
Mr Carruthers said there were events and distances to suit all ages.
Competitors often progress from the walk to the run and into the multisport events too.
The next three events in the series are at Lawrence on February 8, Tapanui on March 8 and Kaka Point on March 15.
