RST Virtual race details:
 
The 2022 RST Virtual will be completed by athletes in their own time, in their own way, anytime between June 5th and June 30th. Yes, that means no 5 am wake up alarm on a Sunday morning!
 
Athletes will choose their own start and finish lines and can participate from any location across the country! Timing will be completed on the athlete's device of choice (smart phone, smart watch, manual time, etc.). Athletes will have the opportunity to log their scores and compare their rankings. Athletes may also join our Strava RST Club to connect with another athletes.
 
Athletes may swim, bike and/or run on any course of their choosing. Just be safe and socially distanced!
 
Virtual Category Options:
  • Run - Bike - Run
  • Bike - Run - Bike
  • Swim - Bike - Run
  • Athlete's Choice* - Bike - Run
*Athlete's choice means that you may alternatively opt for an exercise of your choosing for this leg of the event. The most creative "Athlete's Choice" exercise will win a Spirit Award! For the bike portion, athletes may use a stationary bike or bike outside. Walking instead of running is an option! 
  • The swim is ¼ mile (400 meters) in the pool of your choice

  • The run segment is a total 3.1 miles (5 Km) on the course of your choice
  • The Athlete's Choice segment replaces the swim segment.

Athletes will complete their distance between June 5th and June 30th. We encourage you to invite your friends and family to cheer you on!

Why tri virtual races?
 
Our experience from the past two years revealed that not everybody wants to wake up at five am, battle race traffic and pay for far-away parking, in order to run, bike and swim with a lot of strangers. 

Some participants...
  • are intimidated by the in-person race experience
  • perform better later in the day
  • just can't show up - they have other plans that they can't break
  • don't want bananas at the end
  • don't need to walk a half mile back to the car
  • just need the sense of accomplishment that led them to training for the event
  • just need to get to the finish - wherever and whenever that finish works best for them
Virtual events let participants still have the multi-sport experience on their time without their perceived riffraff and frustrations. For our "virtual participants" we provide you with the opportunity to complete your virtual tri any time between June 5th and June 30th
