Hyannis 2 Triathlon
About this race
Join experienced race veterans and triathlon newcomers alike for the 44th year of the Hyannis Triathlon. Along with its sister race in September, this is the longest-running triathlon in the East!
Both the Sprint and the Olympic races start and finish at picturesque, sandy Craigville Beach. The courses are challenging — but still able to be completed by fitness enthusiasts who have trained for the distances. Starting waves for elites, age groupers, first-timers, even for family and friends who wish to race together! And don’t forget New England’s largest relay team competition!
The atmosphere is special, the views are spectacular, and your satisfaction of accomplishment will last for a long time!

TRI IT YOUR WAY (VIRTUAL CATEGORY)
Can't make it in person? No Problem!
Here's how Tri It Your Way works:
1) Pick your triathlon activities! Remember, you can either swim the 400 yards or choose another activity to do for 10 minutes. The bike needs to be at least 10 miles and the run needs to be at least a 5K (yes, you may go over, but not under!).
2) SAFETY FIRST! Make sure you are taking all the safety precautions when swimming, biking, and running. This means not swimming alone and following all the rules of the road (or trail). Just like all the precautions you take when training or racing an event, we want you to be safe.
3) Record each activity with your watch, or phone, or bike computer.
4) Document your tri! Whether it’s someone taking pictures of you “racing” or stopping for a selfie mid-run. We want to see you in action! Dogs, kids, partners, friends (socially distanced, of course) are encouraged to join in with you!
5) Go to our event page and post your “race” data and your pictures. OR email your pics and race data to info@neeevents.com.

Triathlon
Individual Sprint
Swim: 1/4 mile A sandy, waist-deep start at Craigville Beach (expect temps mid-70s). The course is rectangular in shape (approx 150 yards between the two turns). Wave conditions over the years have ranged from glass-calm to a moderate chop; never “big surf” in the protected waters of Nantucket Sound. Bike: 10.2 miles The “rolling hills” course is a shade over 10 miles: first entering the historic village of Centerville, then winding out to the villages of Osterville and Wianno before returning along a beachside road to Craigville Beach. Single loop; and no duplication of any stretch of road! Run: 3.6 miles The athletes head off toward Hyannisport, with a quarter-mile flat run evolving into a gradual climb for a quarter-mile, then a gentle rolling grade until the last mile which is a gentle downhill grade. A water stop is staffed by enthusiastic volunteers at the midpoint of the 3.6-mile run.
Individual Olympic
Swim: 0.9 mile A sandy, waist-deep start at Craigville Beach (expect temps in the upper 60s or low 70s). Two loops extending beyond the Sprint course buoys in a rectangular shape. Athletes will make continuous loops (staying in the water) until the end of the swim. Bike: approx 24 miles The Olympic distance bicycle route will mirror the Sprint course with the exception of an additional loop starting in the village of Centerville and extending into Osterville. Run: approx 6.2 miles The Olympic distance run route will mirror the Sprint course with the exception of an additional loop.
