About this run
This is a virtual multisport event series designed to help participants maintain their training momentum through the fall and winter months. The Fall/Winter 2026 race is one of two virtual events offered, encouraging consistency and building strength for future races. Participants can complete the swim, bike, and run segments on their own schedule, either outdoors or indoors, and submit their times. The focus is on personal progress and staying active, rather than direct competition. The series encourages participants to incorporate other forms of training like strength work, yoga, or cross-country skiing during the off-season.
