    TriFAHL is one of the area's only triathlons. This is a short distance triathlon for men and women of all athletic abilities that provides the opportunity to "Tri for a Healthy Life" in a low-key and supportive environment. Since we are a smaller race, you don't have to wake up super early to try to find parking and walk a long distance to the race venue or wait in long lines to start the race. Plus you will be finished and on the road by 11am. First-timers and experienced racers are all welcome! You can race as an individual or a relay team.

    The event begins with a 150 Yard swim at the Truman State University Natatorium, followed by a 9 mile bike ride that is two loops on the city streets in Kirksville and ends with a 2.4 mile run on mostly sidewalks through and around the edge of campus.

    Register BY April 5th-$45 (will receive shirt at race). Register AFTER April 5th-$55 (shirt will not be available on race day and will have to be picked up from Warehouse 660 at a later date). REGISTRATION CLOSES ON APRIL 27th.
