From the Organizer
Welcome to the 2026 West Point Youth Triathlon! This year's race is NOT a TOUGHKids event or a USAT Sanctioned race. The race is just-for-fun race with no podium awards to introduce kids to the sport of triathlon. All athletes will receive a t-shirt and a finisher's medal. The race will be held on the 15th of August 2026 for ages 4-14. There are three different races - one for kids aged 4-6 and one for kids aged 7-14, and one for kids aged 2-3 for a "Parent and Me" mini triathlon. The race will fill up quickly, and it is always a wonderful community event!
Parents, please consider volunteering to support the youth race or joining us for the 36th Annual West Point Sprint Triathlon on Sunday August 16, 2026 at Camp Buckner West Point, NY. Register at: https://runsignup.com/westpointtriathlon.
The athlete's guide with information on this event as well as the Sunday sprint triathlon will be published at a later date.
