NBSD's Virtual Triathlon

Naval Base San Diego is hosting a Virtual Triathlon! Each week starting September 7th, runners will log their event times, and turn them into the race director. At the end of the 3 weeks, participants will have completed a triathlon! There will be 2 different categories with different distances to enter: The Sprint, and The Olympic. The Olympic will be the further of the two. The weeks, events, and distances are as follows

Week 1 Swimming (Sept 7th - Sept 13th): 

• The Sprint: 750 meters (0.47 miles)
• The Olympic: 1.5 kilometers (0.93 miles)

Week 2 Cycling (Sept 14th - 20th):

• The Sprint: 20 kilometers (12 miles)
• The Olympic: 40 kilometers (25 miles)

Week 3 Running (Sept 21st - 27th): 3.5 miles.

• The Sprint: 5 kilometers (3.1 miles)
• The Olympic: 10 kilometers (6.2 miles)

All runners will receive an event specific prize. Participants can only choose one category to compete in. The top 3 finishers (male and female categories) will also receive a swag bag full of prizes! In order to be eligible for top 3, participants will have to submit a screenshot or link to a gps tracking app showing their time and distance. One recommended app to use would be "Strava". We realize that this may be tricky for the swimming portion, so participants can complete this portion at the Admiral Prout Gym Pool on Naval Base San Diego and have their time verified by a lifeguard as an alternative.

After submitting your first week to the email below, you will receive a link to view a google document, from there you will be able to compare your times against other participants. 

Prizes will have to be picked up in person at the Admiral Prout Gym on Naval Base San Diego. The race directors email is: billiebechtel.mwr@gmail.com
