Jamestown Triathlon
The Jamestown Triathlon is held at Jamestown Beach Event Park near Williamsburg, Virginia on June 13, 2027. The event offers both Olympic and Sprint triathlon options and aquabike divisions, with separate relay team entries.
Distances available:
- Olympic: 1.5K swim, 40K bike, 10K run
- Sprint: 750m swim, 20K bike, 5K run
Swim courses are rectangular courses in the brackish James River starting from Jamestown Beach. Water depth along the course ranges roughly 6 to 10 feet and water temperature is typically expected in the mid to upper 70s; a preliminary temperature is posted before the event and an official reading is taken on race day. Kayak rentals are available onsite.
Bike courses remain mostly flat and use dedicated bike lanes on Centerville Road with out-and-back sections on local roads; the routes were updated in recent years. Run courses follow paved bike paths and packed gravel trails, with aid stations about every mile offering ice water and Gatorade.
The event is USA Triathlon sanctioned and scores standard categories including Overall, Masters, Age Group, Aquabike, Military, Clydesdale, Athena, and Relay Teams, with scoring three deep. Race registration is non-refundable and packet pickup requires photo ID; all participants must collect their own packet. Registered athletes receive a tech shirt, finisher medal, race socks, post-race food and free finisher photos. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
