The Ulmstead Triathlon is a long standing community event meant to bring together friends and neighbors for a day of fun and fitness! It is is a short course Triathlon, designed for first-time triathletes through experienced racers of all ages. We want to encourage lifelong exercise for all, so UCI members or Ulmstead Swim Team/Pool members are welcome to participate. With expanded divisions and now FREE registration (T-shirts must be purchased, however), there’s something for everyone. Plus we will have some fun division prizes, so sign up now!
KIDS Triathlon:
Age 6-7: The youngest division is our “Guppies” division, for kids 6-7 years of age (or younger if they can swim 50 yards). It will consist of one lap in the Ulmstead Pool (two lengths = 50 yards), a one-mile bike, and .25 mile run. This is meant to prepare them for years of future triathlon fun. The course and division were designed to make it achievable for a young individual, but team participation is also permitted.
Age 8-10: Next is our “Sharks” division, for kids 8-10 years of age, with individual and team options open. This course consists of 4 laps (8 lengths) in the Ulmstead Pool (200 yards), an estimated 3-mile bike through Ulmstead, and 1 mile run from the pool to the beach and back.
Age 11-14: The “Teen” division also has individual and team options open. The course is also a swim in the Ulmstead Pool (200 yards), an estimated 3-mile bike through Ulmstead, and 1 mile run from the pool to the beach and back.
ADULT Triathlon: Designed for ages 15+ (with numerous individual and teams options available), this course consists of 10 laps (20 lengths/500 yards) in the Ulmstead pool, 9-mile bike through Ulmstead (3 laps), and a 3-mile run (1 lap of the bicycle course). For those only wanting to complete one segment, signup under the team category and note your teammates' names. If you don’t have a team yet, note this in the team member field and we will match you up with other racers to form a team!
