Powering the Mob through swim, bike, run.
TRIMOB is a Mob powered organisation who centres community & culture and is igniting the fire in Mob to improve their health & wellbeing through swim, bike, run.
The sport of triathlon has the power to change lives, however before TRIMOB existed it was rare to see First Nations people on a racecourse. TRIMOB is bringing deadliness to swim, bike & run and not only enhancing the sport but changing lives through their community led approaches and programs.

Koorinya had never particpated in triathlon prior to the IRONMOB program, infact she had never done an open water swim. Koorinya was literally thrown in the deep end when she participated in her first triathlon at NSW Club Champs in May of 2023. Less than 12months later she was running down the finish chute at IRONMAN Australia carrying the Aboriginal Flag.
TRIMOB is a registered Mob led (Public Benevolent Institute) charity. As such we acknowledge and pay respect to our ancestors and people for over 60,000 years of continuous living on and caring for this country.
