Classification Events: Men’s/Women’s Championship / Men’s/Women’s Para Championship / Men’s/Women’s Team Championship

Sprint Triathlons are multisport events, consisting of a 750m swim, a 20k bike, and a 5k run. All of the sections are exactly half the distance of an Olympic distance, or Standard, triathlon. A fantastic picturesque sprint triathlon for any ability!
