Club Goal Races - Spring 2018
Ready to pick your races for spring 2018? Every year the Club identifies Goal Races for members interested in training and racing together. Each Goal Race is a different distance, so triathletes of all abilities can be a part of a fun, welcoming, and supportive race environment. Goal Races are a great way to make new friends and meet other club members! For out of town races, we help members connect with each other to coordinate carpools, share airbnbs, etc. Below are the Club's Goal Races for spring 2018!
