_ The 2020 Greater Nashua Sprint Triathlon:- CANCELLED
From The Race Registration Website:
"Taking into account the rapidly changing landscape and current public health recommendations related to COVID-19, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Greater Nashua Sprint Triathlon scheduled for June 14, 2020."
Welcome to the eleventh annual Greater Nashua Sprint Triathlon presented by the YMCA of Greater Nashua and The Center for Physical Therapy and Exercise. Whether you’re a first time triathlete or a veteran you will enjoy our clean lake, rolling hills, smooth run, as well as our hospitality and convenient race venue. You will also be racing to help good causes.
Many athletes will have their friends and families at the race cheering them on. This support is an important part of the race. We will have activities for the kids and food vendors at the race for your “support crew”. Come join in the fun!

Competitive - 3rd wave of the race. For those who are fast competitors but not wishing to compete in Elite.
