TRI Columbus race is located in beautiful Columbus, Indiana in the Tipton Lakes neighborhood. The race is 8 minutes from the I65 Columbus/Bloomington exit. TRI Columbus was formally known as the Columbus Challenge Triathlon which ended in 2018. The Columbus Running Club has brought back the much loved event.
The triathlon event is a 500m swim in Tipton Lakes (time trial start) followed by a 13.5 mile bike through the country and a 5k run. The duathlon is a 5k run, 13.5 mile bike and a 5k run.
Spectators are encouraged to come!
What is the Moonlight Loop?
The Moonlight Loop is a leisurely 19-mile evening bike ride around scenic Columbus, Indiana - passing several architectural gems along the way.
When is it?
Saturday, August 22, 2026 - 9:00 PM EDT
Please Note: Because this is a night ride - this is NOT a race, (cyclists primarily travel together as a group) and everyone will depart the start line at 9:00pm, (so be there, be ready & plan pre-ride bathroom breaks accordingly).
Where is it?
The ride begins and ends in front of the Bartholomew County Public Library Plaza at 536 Fifth Street, Columbus, Indiana.
Who benefits from the ride?
The Moonlight Loop is a fundraiser for Friends of Columbus Animal Care Services (FCACS). Proceeds generated from the event go directly to FCAC's Adoption Medical Fund. This fund covers the cost of providing veterinary treatment, medicine, spay/neuter services and pet food for animals awaiting adoption in the Columbus Animal Care Services(CACS) facility, as well as those in foster care.
WHY should you ride?
Because you get a really cool glow-in-the-dark T-shirt! (Note: You need to register by August 1 to be guaranteed a T-shirt in your size.)
Of course, the funds raised by the Moonlight Loop are supporting a great cause, and doing a bike ride at night is a lot of fun!
