Races
Club Races
Every year we host a series of member-only race events as an opportunity to gain more race experience and build camaraderie with fellow club members in a lower pressure environment. We also give out prizes ranging from club merchandise, accessories, special awards from our club partners, and more! For questions or to help club leadership put on these events, please contact racedirector@dctriclub.org
Training Duathlons
In the spring we hold a series of duathlons to help club members sharpen their fitness and practice transitions prior to their target races. Run. Bike. Run.
Splash n’ Dash
In both spring and summer we run short distance aquathons as opportunities for members to test speed, complement their own training plans, practice transitions, or just cool off and have fun.
Time Trials and Spooky 5K
Club races pick back up in the fall after members’ summer season. We hold a series of time trials (you vs. the clock!) and around Halloween, we hold a Spooky 5K trail run and Chili-Cookoff. Costumes encouraged!
Club Race Results
And we keep track!
The club has been putting on races for over a decade now! And we have the result records to prove it! We’re no Athlinks, but we do keep our results!
Upcoming Races
Did you know: Members of the DC Triathlon Club race all over the DMV region, all over the country, and even all over the world? Did you know that racing with friends and teammates is way more fun than racing alone?
