Eagle River Triathlon

Eagle River Triathlon is the 2024 USA Triathlon Alaska Championship.
 
The Eagle River Triathlon has a stunning course in Chugiak, Alaska just 20 miles north of Anchorage. Known for its spectacular views, and fun, yet challenging bike course, the Eagle River Tri course is a favorite among racers in Alaska. The State Championship events are the Olympic and Sprint distance triathlons. The duathlon, team relay, and kids' race are alternative race options that do not fall under the banner of state championship.
NEW THIS YEAR! Olympic Distance: In the famous words of a baked goods band; are you going the distance, going for speed while you're racing and pacing, we are plotting the course! The swim is a split lane 1500M (33laps) in the Chugiak High School pool. The bike course is a 40K (24.8 miles) double out and back roller coaster with all the ups, downs, and fun turns to keep you on your toes! The majestic 10k (6.2 miles) run is sandwiched between the scenic mountain side of the Chugach range and the concrete jungle of the Glenn hwy. You can treat the random honks from the high-speed peanut gallery as moral support as you push every last drop of energy on your way to the finish line.
Sprint Distance: The swim will be a split lane 500yd (10laps) in the Chugiak High School pool. The bike course is a 20K (12.4 miles) roller coaster with all the ups, downs, and fun turns to keep things exciting! The majestic 5k (3.1 miles) run is sandwiched between the scenic mountain side of the Chugach range and the concrete jungle of the Glenn hwy. The Sprint Distance event is also the High School State Championship for any racers enrolled in high school or with in the 6-month post H.S. 
Sprint Duathlon: For those that think water is for the fishes! To get this party started we have a one-mile trail run on the Beach Lake ski trials. The bike course is a 20K (12.4 miles) roller coaster with all the ups, downs, and fun turns to show off your bike handling skills! The majestic 5k (3.1 miles) run is sandwiched between the scenic mountain side of the Chugach range and the concrete jungle of the Glenn hwy. 
The kids race is on like Donkey Kong!
Kids Race: Nothing makes us happier than seeing the next generation of triathletes out giving it their all. We are giving the kids their very own day. Thanks to Turnagain Training and the support of our generous sponsors to give these kiddos the event they deserve. 50 yard swim / 1 mile bike / ~.8 mile run.
