Event Description

The Sandman Triathlon is one of Santa Cruz County’s oldest triathlons, having held its inaugural race in 1985, in the infancy of the sport. The Sandman is a fundraiser for the local State Parks, Lifeguard operations, and the Junior Lifeguard program. Proceeds help fund scholarships for underprivileged kids so they can receive high-quality water safety education. The Sandman Triathlon is a USAT-sanctioned event.
