The Albany Community Triathlon is a community multisport event held at the Albany Aquatic Center and Memorial Park on 20 September 2026. The event includes a main Super Sprint course for individuals and relay teams, and a shorter mini triathlon for individual participants.
The main Super Sprint course includes these legs:
- SWIM: 400 m (0.24 mi) - 17 lengths of a 25 yd pool, split lanes
- BIKE: 10 km (6.2 mi) - 12 laps around the streets, clockwise
- RUN: 2.5 km (1.6 mi) - 3 sidewalk laps around the block, counterclockwise
The short course mini triathlon includes these legs:

The outdoor pool has 10 split lanes with two swimmers per lane, variable depth from 4 to 13 feet, and water temperature reported at 80°F. Swim heats are organized in separate waves and lane assignments are on a first-come, first-served basis at the pool. The bike and run loops use city streets around Albany High School and Memorial Park; the route is mostly flat with a slight 1-2% grade on one or two short blocks.
Registration fees are listed per event and proceeds benefit the Albany Athletics Boosters. Packet pickup is scheduled the day before at Road Runners Sports in Berkeley. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
