HRTC Annual Sprint Triathlon

 

The 27th annual Houston Racing Sprint Triathlon will take place Saturday, May 18, 2019, in Katy, TX from 6:45 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. As one of the primary multi-sport events in the region, Houston Racing Sprint Triathlon, is produced by the Houston Racing Triathlon Club (HRTC). This year offers many upgrades to ensure athlete enjoyment and safety including a new location. This race caps at a smaller field of participants, offering beginners a chance to feel at ease and seasoned athletes an opportunity for a fun, fast course! Long standing community support is why HRTC is celebrating its 30th anniversary and exists to bring athletes together for fun, for training and for volunteerism and charitable fundraising.

 

The 27th Annual Houston Racing Sprint Triathlon continues to uphold this tradition.

 

The race is a USA Triathlon (USAT) sanctioned event, and has served the City of Katy and the Triathlon Community as a major fundraising event for your favorite charities. Since the 2017 program inception, using our sponsor Reason2Race, 29 athletes have collectively raised over $87,000 for various local and international causes!

 

Pre Race: Our sponsor Bicycle World, will be on hand to help with any mechanical needs.

 

Swim: A 300 yard snake style swim in the amazing Katy Aquatics Center! There is plenty of room for triathletes to line up in a self seeded start. With ample side bleachers your friends and family can cheer you on!

 

Bike: A 13.9 mile bike ride with plenty of course support for your safety along a flat and fast route that is easy to follow and fun!

 

Run: The best part is the final 5K (3.1 mile) leg of the race through the lovely neighborhoods of Katy, with hydration support and a super fun finish! You did it!  

 

Post Race: Every participant to cross the finish line will receive a unique finishers medal and awards will be given to top finishers - podium time!
