St. George Triathlon

St. George Triathlon

The St. George Triathlon takes place April 9-10, 2027, with a consolidated course centered at the Sand Hollow Aquatic Center (SHAC) in St. George, Utah. The event includes swim, bike, and run segments for adults and children and keeps most activity close to the aquatic center for spectators and families.

Race options and distances:

• Adult Individual Sprint: swim 400 m, bike 12 miles, run 3 miles
• Adult Sprint Relay: swim 400 m, bike 12 miles, run 3 miles
• Adult Beginner: swim 200 m, bike 6 miles, run 1.55 miles
• Kid's Sprint: swim 100 m, bike 2 miles, run 3/4 mile
• Kid's Beginner: swim 50 m, bike 1 mile, run 1/2 mile

The swim occurs in the indoor pool at SHAC in heats of about 20 racers, with two people per full lane. Pool temperature is listed between 81 and 84 degrees, and lap counters will be present. Organizers assign swim wave start times at registration; the first wave is reserved for elite competitors.

The bike course departs and returns to SHAC, follows Warrior Way, Pioneer Parkway, Tuweap Drive, and Sunset Boulevard for the adult loops, and uses an out-and-back on Warrior Way for kid races. Riders must have helmets fastened before removing bikes from the rack, may not wear earbuds while on the bike, must mount and dismount at designated lines, and may not ride in the transition area.

The run is an out-and-back loop along the bike path; adult sprint and relay complete two loops, adult beginner one loop, and kids shorter loops. An aid station is located mid-course so runners pass it at least twice. Relays may include up to three athletes, with one team captain registering and inviting teammates. All finishers receive a finisher medal. Registration categories include regular and late pricing with separate fees for each race; kids races are for participants 17 years old and younger. Organizers also seek volunteers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
