Bottomless Triathlon
The Bottomless Triathlon takes place at Bottomless Lakes State Park in Roswell, New Mexico on June 27, 2026. The event follows a super sprint format with short swim, bike and run legs held at the state park established in 1984, which is New Mexico’s first state park. The event has historical ties to junior triathlon competition, being described as the birthplace of the Triathlon Junior Olympics in the 1990s and as a qualifying event for the inaugural ITU Youth (Junior B) World Championships.
Solo and relay options are offered:
- 1/4 mile swim in the clear spring-fed lake
- 8 mile bike course
- 4k run on a fast, flat course
Three competition entries are listed: Individual Triathlon, 2 or 3 person Coed Relay (teams must include both a male and a female to qualify for awards), and an Under 18 Individual Triathlon. Registration fees shown are $50 for the individual division, $90 for the coed relay, and $25 for the under 18 individual. The under 18 division notes an age requirement: must not turn 18 before 7-13-2025. Registration open and close dates vary by division.
Additional event notes include athlete check-in locations on the day before at the host hotel Candlewood Suites and on race morning at the transition area in the state park. The first five athletes under 18 in the solo division register free and special pricing applies thereafter. Other listed policies: cash back for referring five athletes, conditional refunds if the race fills and wait list entries accept spots, and no deferrals. All proceeds support Harvest Ministries of Roswell, Central Chaves County Food Bank. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
