Event Description

For the first time in 4 years… The University of Akron Indoor Triathlon is back!!

Race Setup: 10 min swim in the Ocasek Natatorium (ONAT) at the Student Recreation and Wellness Center, 20 min bike in Studio B, and 15 min run on the indoor track all in the Student Recreation and Wellness Center at the University of Akron (there will be a 10 min transition from swim to bike, and 5 min transition from bike to run).

Important Information: This is open to the public, you do not need to be a college student. The results will be based on how far you can go in the time given for each event, then weighted to give correct significance to all three events. Scores are calculated to give an accurate time (in minutes) of how you would perform in a sprint triathlon. Note: Waves will be scored by wattage for the bike portion due to the way our bikes calculate distance. Tentative waves will be sent out 6 days before the event, any changes made from there will be within the same hour requested in order to fit everyone in the waves. Enter through the ONAT doors where check-in, T-shirts and further directions for the race will be given. We recommend you get here 30 min before your start time to have plenty of time to check-in, see where the bike and run will be and start warm-up 10 min before your start time for the swim.

We are also excited to re-announce The University of Akron's Student Recreation and Wellness Center as our co-host. We have used their nationally acclaimed facilities the previous two years for our race, and we now have their full backing and endorsement of the race!

Notice To Minors: Minors must be accompanied by parent or legal guardian to sign a minor participation wavier. This wavier can also be emailed to participants to fill out at home. Please reach out to us with questions.
