Triple Crown Challenge
Students and staff at TAS have the opportunity to swim, run, cycle and paddle their way to an award that recognises endurance and challenge.
The TAS Triple Crown recognises those who successfully complete at least three of the four endurance events including the 2km Coffs Harbour Ocean Swim, the 14km City to Surf run, the 210km Tour de Rocks mountain bike ride during their secondary years at the school. If all are completed in a single calendar year, they are eligible for the Gold Triple Crown.
While each event has been part of the TAS adventure calendar for many the award recognises the qualities each event shares in encouraging boys and girls to strive beyond their expectations.
The award espouses the values of determination, resilience and aspiration. All events are individual entry only and require participants to train significantly beforehand. The unique variety of fixtures means that this award is open to all, not just those for whom sport is central.
