MightyMan Montauk Sprint Triathlon Festival
MightyMan Montauk is a triathlon festival held in Montauk, New York, at Fort Pond on October 4, 2026. The event includes multiple race formats and divisions, including sprint and Olympic distances, aquabike, relay teams, and a high school division.
Distances
- Sprint triathlon: 750 meters swim, 17 km bike, 5 km run.
- Olympic triathlon: an Olympic distance race is offered.
- Aquabike: swim and bike only, then rack the bike and cross the finish line.
- Relay and high school divisions are available.
The swim is an out and back in Fort Pond, a freshwater pond with typical water temperatures in the mid to upper 60s; wetsuits are recommended but not mandatory. The bike course is a single loop through Montauk. The run course combines rolling and flat sections. Fort Pond has a water quality contingency; if blue green algae is detected, the swim will move to Navy Beach as a backup.
The event is sanctioned by USA Triathlon and requires a valid USAT membership; non members must purchase a one day USAT license. Registration fees vary by date and listed pricing applies to USAT members. Cut off times are published for each discipline. Packet pick up is scheduled at a local running store and at the race site prior to race day.
Awards are given across overall, relay, challenged, Clydesdale and Athena, high school, and age group categories. Parking guidance directs athletes to the public lot near the IGA or to park in town and walk to the site. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
