This summer, the annual Columbia Threadneedle Investments Boston Triathlon returns to the city, hosting both Olympic and sprint distance triathlons, the Boston Corporate Cup, and a Kids Day. The triathlon is presented by ethos, which also organizes the Lobsterman Triathlon, and Boston Medical Center is the official race charity partner.

Boston’s only triathlon takes place in South Boston, where participants will swim from Carson Beach, bike down Day Boulevard, then run a winding course through Moakley Park.

The event is USAT sanctioned, or USA Triathlon sanctioned, which means that all USAT rules and regulations will apply. Participation is encouraged from folks of all ages and skill levels, whether this is a racer’s first triathlon, or their tenth. Organizers expect some participants to travel from around the country and from abroad for this world class race.

Registration is currently open, and more details like course maps, schedules, and frequently asked questions can be found on the event website.
