Hello everyone. Based on the UTK's decision to move to an on-line model for the remainder of the academic year, the Trideltathon for 2020 has been canceled. Thank you for your patience as we worked with our partners to try to secure a later date. Unfortunately it just wasn't possible. We have several options for you to choose from. If you choose options 1 or 5 just choose the selection below. If you want choose either of the others please email me directly (martin@racedayevents.net) so we can get you taken care of. The selection period will close on May 1 and anyone who hasn't chosen will be automatically be transferred to next year's race.

Overall, age group, & relay division awards, as well as special student pricing available. Soft cotton shirts for men. Back for 2020--NEXT LEVEL tank option for women.  The TriDeltathon is NOT a USAT sanctioned event.
