One of the best all women triathlons on the west coast. Capitola is the perfect venue offering an ocean swim around the wharf, views of the pacific, fun bike course featuring a gradual climb into the coastal redwoods, followed by a run on the ocean bluff overlooking the town.

Triathlon and Duathlon participants receive a stylish women’s cut shirt, custom finisher’s necklace, and post race food.

Sprint Triathlon Race Categories – Family & Friends vs. Age Group vs. Athena
The Family & Friends category allows athletes of any age to start together. It is very popular for first time triathletes, mother and daughter combos and friends who would otherwise be in different start waves. The Age Group category is for Mermaids who wish to compete against Mermaids of a similar age. The Athena category is for athletes 160lbs and over.
