Event History
The TRI for FUN Sprint Triathlon began in 1983, started by Fleet Feet Sports founder Sally Edwards. TBF Racing took over the event in 2001 and have enjoyed working with the SMUD Staff at Rancho Seco Park to bring you this classic Series of Triathlons each summer.
2012 Race Features
The race is at beautiful Rancho Seco Park featuring a lake swim, a road bike course, and a dirt trail run. The TRI for FUN Sprint Triathlon is a popular event for experienced triathletes and first-timers, and the DU for FUN Duathlon offers non-swimmers a great multisport event with a run-bike-run course. Included for each athlete is custom tech-tee race shirt, an XTERRA swim cap, an athlete goody bag, hot post race meal and free athlete massage.
