The Lytle Park Tri returns on the Fourth of July with newly re-mapped courses and the addition of a standalone 5K, making this the biggest and most flexible version of the event to date.

The Sprint Triathlon features an outdoor pool swim, eliminating open-water guesswork and making this an ideal first triathlon while still delivering a competitive race for seasoned athletes. The updated bike and run courses are designed to be straightforward and efficient, allowing racers to focus on performance, not navigation.

Alongside the Sprint Triathlon, the new 5K Run gives runners a chance to be part of race day without committing to all three disciplines. Sprint Triathlon relay teams are also available, making this a great option for friends, families, or coworkers who want to race together.

Kick off your Independence Day by racing in the morning and celebrating the rest of the day. Whether you’re chasing a podium, completing your first triathlon, or starting July 4 with a fast 5K, the Lytle Park Tri is a strong, no-nonsense way to celebrate.

More details, including course maps and race-day logistics, will be posted as the event approaches.
