Triathlon
Swim, bike, and run with the new Team Challenge Sprint Triathlon Training Program! We're recruiting participants from San Diego, Los Angeles, the Bay Area, Seattle, and Denver to go to beautiful San Diego, CA for the TriRock Triathlon. You'll raise funds for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis programs while training for the experience of a lifetime!
Never done a Triathlon before?
No worries! Both novice and expert athletes can complete this sprint triathlon course. A typical triathlon consists of swimming, biking, and running, consecutively, in that order. For first-timers, sprints are very doable and for experienced athletes, it's a chance to really test your top end speed!
What are the distances involved?
This sprint triathlon distance is defined as: swim .3 miles, bike 12.4 miles, and run 3.1 miles.
How does Team Challenge Triathlon work?
- We help you get ready for race day through training by professional coaches over 16 weeks at a venue near you. You will be coached to perform at your best for all sections of the event, including open water swim coaching.
- A series of clinics on open water swimming, bike safety, T1 and T2 transitions, nutrition, hydration, and injury prevention will prepare participants for all legs of this event.
- While training, you'll also be raising funds to support research, education, and support programs for the 1.4 million Americans with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, two painful digestive diseases. You'll receive all the tools and help you need – you’ll even get your own personal fundraising web page to help reach your goals.
- You'll make new friends and great memories as you train and race with your team. Not only will you test your limits, but you'll also give countless patients hope for a life without Crohn's or colitis.
