We're so excited that in person events are back, and we're kicking things off with our annual Steve's Memorial Triathlon! Also included in this fun training event is an open water skills clinic for those looking to improve on open water swimming. Coach AB will do the clinic during the swim portion of the event and once you're done with the fun swim stuff you can transition along through the rest of the triathlon!!!

Location Notes:
The entrance to Rocky Nook Park is on your right just past the historic Santa Barbara Mission on Mission Canyon Road. If you see the entrance to the Natural History Museum on your left, you've gone one bend too far.
All cars must be out of the park by sunset, which is approximately 7:30 PM. Event time has been adjusted accordingly.

The approximate swim distance is 500m ocean swim.
The approximate run distance is a 1 mile beach run.
Please sign up to participate (swim, run, both, either, volunteer to help) - HERE
Format of the event: Each club creates multiple 6 person relay teams (all women team, all men team, co-ed team), and the relay works like this: swim to run to swim to run to swim to run (3 swimmers and 3 runners per team). The club that has the most victories wins the trophy. We need as many participants as possible as we will field as many teams as possible, everyone participates!!
Look for the SB Tri Club tent on the beach in front of the Bathhouse. Help us crush UCSB Tri, then hang with the club, post race snack and beautiful sunshine provided!!
