Join us in the once "Secret City" to celebrate the 44th Anniversary of the oldest, continuously running triathlon.

The Los Alamos Triathlon is a sprint triathlon with a unique format of Bike, Swim, Run and is held at a starting elevation of 7,400`. The course is challenging with a rolling bike course that starts in town and takes you along an open course surrounded by forests and mountain vistas; return to the Walkup Aquatic Center for a 400 meter pool swim; and a slightly hilly run completes the course.
