    MTWTri is a user friendly multisport event in Helena. It starts at the city pool in Memorial Park. The pool is a 50 meter outdoor pool with no deep water. The swim is a 500 meter swim which equals 10 lengths of the pool. The lane is yours until you're done. No pressure. The bike course is a flat 10 mike bike ride through Centennial Park to Ten Mile Park and back. Expect short gravel sections, packed dirt, and paved city trails. There will be help on the course for mechanical problems. The 3 mile run/walk is mostly in Centennial Park cruising on trails past the carousel and back through the tunnel to the park where you can wave your buddies on and have others cheer for you. Do it yourself, do it with your friends, get a three generation team, talk your Mom into signing up.

    The goal of the Montana Women’s Triathlon is to empower women to healthy lifestyles through sport. We aspire to bring together a community of women who support and encourage each other through the entire process of training to participating in a multisport event. This event is for women of all ages and abilities. We encourage individual participation as well as team participation. The event supports organizations that share our passion - Girls Thrive, Helena Cyclones, Helena Regional Sports Association/The ARC
