Event Overview

The GVSU Last Chance Tri is an indoor triathlon held in Allendale, Michigan at the GVSU Recreation Center. The event uses a points-based scoring format where participants compete against the clock in each segment, not directly against other athletes.

Event Format

The triathlon consists of three timed segments with specific transition periods in between.

  • Swim: 20-minute session in the pool. Participants complete as many lengths as possible, with each 25-yard length scoring 1 point.
  • Bike: 25-minute session on stationary spinning bikes. The distance covered is measured, with 1 point awarded per tenth of a mile (0.1 miles).
  • Run: 20-minute session on an indoor track. Participants cover as many laps as possible, scoring 6 points per lap. Transition times are part of the event structure, with a 10-minute period after the swim to change and move to the cycling area, and another 10-minute period after the bike to move to the track.

Additional Details

The event is noted as a potential qualifying race for collegiate athletes seeking to reach Collegiate Club Nationals. It takes place on February 15, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
