MSU Triathlon hosts several events every year as fundraisers to help the team cover administrative, travel and racing costs or to benefit other nonprofit organizations. With our diverse array of events, we’re sure you can find one that interests you.

Spartan Sprint Triathlon – Sunday, October 11, 2009
Season two for the US Collegiate Triathlon race series, 3Disciplines Racing is teaming up with MSU Triathlon to host the event. On October 11, the banks of the Red Cedar will be filled with athletes competing for early dominance in the point series. This race will also be open to the public, allowing us to bring an event to campus that involves the entire community of East Lansing.

Who doesn’t feel guilty for eating all of those sweets that your valentine bought for you? Well here is your chance to burn that candy off! You and your valentine can compete in the awesome 5K run/walk through the beautiful snow covered campus (yes, it is in February). We offer awards for individuals and teams who compete as a couple. Excellent prizes are handed out for overall winners and age group winners in addition to excellent post-race snacks. It is a very fun event to kick off your running season!

IronMAC Indoor Triathlon – Sunday, March 21, 2010
As another fundraiser for our club, we host an event that allows the new or veteran triathlete an opportunity to experience a triathlon before jumping right into the spring/summer racing season. The friendly people at the Michigan Athletic Club (MAC) allow us to run an indoor triathlon during the winter. The event consists of a 20-minute swim in a 25-meter pool, 20-minute bike on a stationary bike, and a 20-minute run on the indoor track. Athletes obtain points based on the distance covered in each discipline, with the winner receiving the most points. Six person waves are sent every 20 minutes, which truly allows each athlete to focus on their own race and not worry about other athletes. It is a great opportunity to give triathlons a try!
