What is AUS3 by Austriathlon? A Fun, Active Journey for the Next Generation!
If there’s one initiative bringing a fresh, engaging approach to getting kids active across Australia, it’s AUS3 by Austriathlon.
Designed specifically for young Australians, AUS3 is all about making movement fun, accessible, and rewarding—whether that’s in the pool, on a bike, or out on a run.
A New Way to Get Kids Moving
At its core, AUS3 is built around three simple but powerful activities: swim, bike, and run. These are the foundations of triathlon—but here, they’re reimagined in a way that feels inclusive and exciting rather than competitive.
The program encourages children aged 7–12 to explore these activities at their own pace, helping them build confidence, fitness, and fundamental movement skills in a supportive environment.
What makes AUS3 stand out is its “choose your own adventure” approach—kids can engage with the activities in a way that suits them, keeping things flexible, fun, and personal.
More Than a Program — It’s an Adventure
Beyond structured sessions, AUS3 also introduces a playful, digital experience that keeps kids motivated.
Participants can:
- Record their swim, ride, or run activities
- Take part in a virtual journey across Australia
- Unlock destinations and collect badges
- Earn character upgrades and rewards along the way (including Zoggs gifts!)
It transforms everyday movement into an interactive adventure, where progress is visible and achievements are celebrated.
Powered by Purpose — Supported by Zoggs
At Zoggs, we believe that building confidence in the water from a young age creates lifelong swimmers—and that aligns perfectly with what AUS3 stands for.
That’s why Zoggs proudly sponsors the AUS3 initiative, supporting young participants as they dive into swimming as part of their journey.
To make the experience even more rewarding:
- Participants who reach specific activity thresholds will be eligible for an exclusive online discount code to use on Zoggs.com
- And for those who go the extra mile early on—the first 100 participants to hit these milestones will receive a fun Zoggs gift
It’s all about recognising commitment and celebrating the small wins that build lifelong habits.
