About this race

The Dayton Triathlon and Multisport Festival has something for everyone, including all ages and ability levels! Races include kids, beginner, sprint, Olympic, and ⅓ iron distances in triathlons, duathlons, aquabikes, and aquathlons, open runs, and various open swim distances. We are athletes who want to foster a love of multisport training and racing, by hosting fun, safe, and challenging races. Racers call this race one of the best events in Ohio because of our positive, friendly atmosphere. Plus we have a post race meal (bbq, hot dogs, veggies, ice cream and more…) for athletes and spectators, designer tees in gender-specific cuts, in-race pictures, and finisher medals. Come race with us, all are welcome.
