Description
Welcome to the Moab Triathlon Festival! You will find something for everyone at this two-day event! Trail run, road triathlons, XTERRA Full and Sport triathlons, and a Kids Triathlon! Two- and three-person relay teams are welcome in all XTERRA and Road triathlons!
Note: The XTERRA Full Triathlon is a National Points Series (XPS) event. XPS points are only awarded for the Full distance. In order to accrue points, you must have an XTERRA XPS # assigned. Contact XTERRA (http://www.xterraplanet.com) for more information.
- The XTERRA Moab Full Triathlon starts with a 1500M swim in Ken's Lake, a 40K Bike on the world-famous Steelbender trail, and a two-loop 10K+ run to Faux Falls finishing at the day use area of Ken's Lake. It is highly recommended you pre-ride the bike course as it will require both technical skill and strength.
- The XTERRA Moab Sport Triathlon will travel the same trails, only half the distances.
- The Moab Road Olympic Triathlon will start with the same 1500M swim in Ken's Lake, a 40K Bike on Spanish Valley Drive with an out-and-back leg to Pack Creek Ranch, and finish with the same two-loop 10K+ run to Faux Falls and finishing at the day use area of Ken's Lake.
- The Moab Road Sprint Triathlon will also travel the same road to Pack Creek Ranch with the swim, bike and run all half the distances of the Olympic triathlon.
- The Moab Kids Triathlon (ages 7-10) will start with a 25M swim, 1.5 mile bike, and a 1/2 mile run. The older kids (ages 11-14) participating in the Moab Kids Triathlon will swim 200M, bike 6K, and finish with a 1 mile run.
The Moab Triathlon Festival is a USA Triathlon (USAT) sanctioned event.
