Event Description

Come join us for a spectacular swim in the Florida Pool, a bike though UF’s scenic campus, and a run around the heart of our beautiful campus center. Celebrate three sports in a single sunshine-state morning. Gather up your energy and best friends for an event that will bring out the TriGator in you!!! This race is perfect for just about anyone! Maybe you want to see what a triathlon is like? Maybe you’re training for your next race? Maybe you want to come in first? Maybe you just want to finish something more than a color run? This event is FOR YOU! Event Distances: A short 250 yard swim (that’s two and a half laps in the pool), a 3.4 mile bike ride, and a quick 1.1 mile run! Throughout the years many of the Gainesville and University of Florida community have come out to support the UF TriGators. Your participation in this race provides us with the funding necessary to train and race. With your help we’ve consistently been one of the top collegiate triathlon teams in Florida!
