    Join experienced race veterans and triathlon newcomers alike for a true Cape Cod tradition: the Hyannis Triathlon. Along with its sister race in September, this is the longest-running triathlon in the East!

    The location is the very scenic Craigville Beach — about 20 minutes from the bridge over the Cape Cod canal. The swim, bike and run courses are suitable for experienced athletes as well as by fitness enthusiasts who have trained for the distances.

And we are proud to host New England’s largest triathlon relay team competition!

    Make your plans now to dial in your training for the June race…and then test yourself once again at our Hyannis 2 race in early September!

    Named as one of the 20 Best Triathlons in the Nation by Men’s Health magazine (2016)

    Named one of The Most Amazing Triathlons to Do in the USA Today by The Culture Trip (2017)

    TRI IT YOUR WAY (VIRTUAL CATEGORY)

    Can't make it in person? No Problem!

    Here's how Tri It Your Way works:

    1. Pick your triathlon activities! Remember, you can either swim the 400 yards or choose another activity to do for 10 minutes. The bike needs to be at least 10 miles and the run needs to be at least a 5K (yes, you may go over, but not under!).

    2. SAFETY FIRST! Make sure you are taking all the safety precautions when swimming, biking, and running. This means not swimming alone and following all the rules of the road (or trail). Just like all the precautions you take when training or racing an event, we want you to be safe.

    3. Record each activity with your watch, or phone, or bike computer.

    4. Document your tri! Whether it’s someone taking pictures of you “racing” or stopping for a selfie mid-run. We want to see you in action! Dogs, kids, partners, friends (socially distanced, of course) are encouraged to join in with you!

    5. Go to our event page and post your “race” data and your pictures. OR email your pics and race data to info@neeevents.com.

    USAT SANCTIONED

    Results will count toward national and regional rankings. All USAT rules and regulations will apply. Racers are subject to time penalties or disqualification for infractions of USAT rules.

    You are required to have either an annual or 1-day (Bronze) USA Triathlon membership in order to race in any USAT-sanctioned event. Non-USAT members will be required to purchase a one-day event insurance license from USA Triathlon. Costs: $14.99/sprint, $24.99/olympic, $9 per relay team member, $10 for youth.

    MASSACHUSETTS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

    This is a 2026 USA Triathlon State Championships Ranking Point Event. Residents of Massachusetts can earn points which — combined with results in other qualifying races — will be totaled by USA Triathlon at the end of 2026. Note: you must participate in at least three qualifying races to be eligible for State Champion.

    Experience Newport like never before at the Newport Sprint Triathlon presented by Trident Waterproofing and Masonry. Set against the backdrop of Newport’s unmatched early-summer energy and iconic coastal scenery, this event delivers fast racing, ocean views, and a truly memorable way to kick off the season. Whether it’s your first triathlon or you’re a seasoned competitor, this race is designed to be welcoming, exciting, and true to the spirit of coastal New England.

    Athletes will take on a classic sprint-distance course that showcases some of the most scenic and historic terrain in coastal Rhode Island. The race begins with a 1/3 mile protected swim inside the calm Fort Adams cove beside the SSV Oliver Hazard Perry. From there, athletes head out on an 11.6 mile bike ride along the world-famous Ocean Drive, featuring rolling terrain, nonstop ocean vistas, and classic Newport landmarks. The race wraps up with a 3 mile run through Fort Adams State Park, including stretches inside the historic fort itself and along its beautiful waterfront grounds.

    Come race, explore, and enjoy a classic Newport morning at one of New England’s most unique sprint triathlons.

    USAT Sanctioned Event:

    This race is sanctioned by USA Triathlon (USAT). All participants are required to be current USAT members or purchase a one-day USAT membership during registration. All registrants must also complete and sign the USAT waiver prior to competing. No athlete will be permitted to race without a valid USAT membership and signed waiver.

    For 6 weeks, young athletes across Rhode Island and Massachusetts have been swimming, biking, and running toward this one incredible goal!

    This finale event brings together participants from Race4Chase programs across both states to celebrate their hard work, determination, and confidence gained throughout the summer. It’s more than a race, it’s a powerful celebration of youth achievement, healthy living, and community support.

    While this event is exclusively for Race4Chase participants and not open to public registration, we need enthusiastic volunteers to help make it a safe, smooth, and unforgettable experience for every child crossing that finish line.
