Nationals Information

State championships qualify the top 35% finishers in an age group. You may only qualify for Olympic-distance Nationals by placing in the Olympic distance State Championship race or Sprint Nationals by placing in the sprint distance State Championship race.

The Treasure Valley Triathlon will qualify for BOTH 2025 AND 2026 USA Triathlon Sprint and Olympic Distance National Championships.
