USA Triathlon Announces Full Calendar of Regional Championships for 2019

Share
Jun 19, 2019

USA Triathlon has announced its full calendar of Regional Championships for 2019, an action-packed slate of multisport events for age-group, youth and paratriathletes across USA Triathlon’s six Regions.

Regional Championships for the discipline of Olympic-distance triathlon offer athletes a special opportunity to qualify for the Toyota USA Triathlon Olympic-Distance Age Group National Championships. The top 35 percent or top five finishers per age group (whichever is greater) earn the opportunity to go to Nationals — in comparison to a standard USA Triathlon Sanctioned Event, in which only the top 15 percent in each age group qualify.

All Olympic-distance Regional Championships occurring before Aug. 2, 2019, will qualify top finishers for the 2019 Toyota USA Triathlon Olympic-Distance Age Group National Championships, set for Aug. 10 in Cleveland. All Regional Championships occurring between July 1 and Aug. 2, 2019, will qualify athletes for both the 2019 and 2020 edition, while all races occurring after Aug. 2 will qualify athletes for the 2020 edition. The date and location of the 2020 Toyota USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships are to be determined.

Olympic-Distance Regional Championships 

Regional Championships will also be held for the disciplines of sprint-distance triathlon, duathlon and multisport (may include long-course triathlon, aquathlon and/or aquabike), as well as for youth athletes and paratriathletes.
