A sprint series at three great venues just a short drive from anywhere on the Front Range. The series welcomes all ability levels.

Stay Tuned for a 2018 Front Range Tri Series Announcement!

 

Racing Underground has been producing first-class endurance events on the Colorado Front Range since 1995. In 2016, we bring you the third edition of the Front Range Triathlon Series!

This fun series combines three of the best sprint events in the region - each with a different style and each with it's own personality! These are not cookie-cutter events. Every race has fantastic post-race food, unmatched random prize drawings, and high quality tech shirts!

All 3-race finishers will go home with a series award, with the top point winners in each age group earning an age group champion plaque and a gift certificate from Runners Roost.

There will also be a Club Championship series, with clubs earning valuable points at each race, that could net them a share of the $1,750 club cash purse! The top-3 clubs will take home $1,000, $500, and $250.

Join us this summer, and experience the Racing Underground difference!

The Races

July 24, 2016: Triathlon returned to Evergreen in 2012, and the response was nothing short of amazing! Participants were wow'ed with a beautiful foothills course that featured a cool lake swim, spectacular road bike ride, and a scenic trail run! All just 20 minutes from Denver!!! Evergreen Lake had not seen a triathlon since the early 90's when the Evergreen High Country Triathlon challenged athletes from around the country. The Evergreen Sprint Tri resumed that tradition, and promises to be a Colorado classic! Click Race Logo for more info


August 2016: My Way or the Tri Way is the Funnest Tri you will do all Year! The unigue format allows you to select the order you swim, bike, and run. The race takes place at the beautiful Aurora Reservoir. Expect a family-friendly format with a Jumpy Castle for the kids, a sign-making station for your fans, and an awesome post-race BBQ. You could also win a new bike courtesy of presenting sponsor Campus Cycles! Click Race Logo for more info


Sept 18, 2016: The Littlefoot Triathlon is the perfect end to the Front Range triathlon season!

Age Group points will be awarded in each gender in the following amounts: 24-20-18-14-12-10-8-6-4-2. There will be a multiplier of 1.5 for the Littlefoot series finale, so 1st place at Littlefoot will be worth 36 points, 2nd will earn 30 points, etc. You must earn age group series points in a minimum of 2 races to qualify for a series award.

Club Points: Club Points will only be awarded to athletes who have declared their club affiliation at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the first wave. Please check the club list at packet pickup to confirm that you are listed as a member of your club. You must only designate one club affiliation. Athletes cannot score points for 2 or more clubs.

Club points will be awarded to the top-5 overall male and female finishers, and to all age group finishers who have listed their club affiliation. The top-5 overall male and female finishers (who are club members) will earn points for their club in the amounts of 20, 18, 16, 14, and 12. The top-5 overall finishers will not receive age group club points.

The top 5 finishers in each age group (who are club members) will earn points for their club in the amounts of 10, 8, 6, 4, 2. All club members who finish beyond 5th place in their age group will receive 1 point toward their clubs total.

The Littlefoot Triathlon will serve as the series championship, and all points will receive a 1.5x multiplier!!!

Other Series Point Info: Series points will be awarded in the triathlon events only. There will be no points awarded for duathlon or aquabike finishers. In My Way or the Tri Way, all TRIATHLON orders will be combined to determine the top finishers and point winners. The Littlefoot Triathlon will be the series championship, and finishers in the individual point series' will win 1.5x the points of the other two events. All ties will be broken by the placing in the Littlefoot Tri. If neither tieing athlete finishes the Littlefoot Tri, then the tie will be broken using the placing in My Way or the Tri Way. An athlete must earn points in that prize pool in at least 2 events in order to be eligible for series awards. Points are not transferable between divisions (ex: you cannot race Clydesdale in one race, and age group in another, then combine the points). Series points will be considered final three days after each event. Any point dispute must be submitted by noon on the 3rd day after an event.
