The Vancouver Triathlon, celebrating its 23rd year, takes place in scenic Stanley Park, Vancouver, BC. This annual event features a closed-course race with multiple distance options: Standard (1500m swim, 38km bike, 10km run), Sprint (750m swim, 19km bike, 5km run), and Tri It (300m swim, 9km bike, 2.5km run), plus relay team categories. The swim occurs in English Bay, with lifeguard support, while the bike and run courses wind through Stanley Park’s traffic-free roads and trails.
Participants must hold a provincial triathlon membership or purchase day insurance. The event also offers a "Tri for Charity" option, encouraging fundraising for local organizations. The race emphasizes safety, community spirit, and environmental stewardship. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
