Short distance multi-sport racing is back on the Seneca Lake waterfront in Geneva, NY with 2 events; Kids Triathlon and a first in the Northeast, the Geneva Mixed Team Relay (MTR) triathlon.   Introduced at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic games, the MTR format is ultra face-paced, spectator-friendly, and loads of fun for triathletes of every ability.

 

Mixed Team Relay Triathlon - Basic Info

• Distance: Swim 0.25-mile (300m), Bike 3.9-mile (5.6km), Run 1.25-mile (2km) 
• Race Format:  In this order (F-M-F-M), one athlete must complete the full triathlon before tagging the next teammate in the designated relay zone until all four have completed the race to generate a total team time.
• Timing:  Total team time is used to determine performance awards
• Awards: Overall Top 3 Teams, Age Groups by Decade
• Age Groups: Calculated by average age of total team and grouped by decade
• Important FYIs / Notes
  • You may register as an individual to be paired with 3 others to form a 4-person mixed gender team. Pairing will be done at random.
  • Course distances are subject to adjustments to meet environmental demands and weather conditions
  • Due to the technical nature of the bike course and athlete safety, road bikes are preferred as aero positioning on the bike is highly discouraged
