Tri-Waco
The Waco Chamber of Commerce, City of Waco and Ironhead Race
Productions will present Tri-Waco on Sunday, July 26 at Indian
Spring Park.
Tri-Waco, a USA Triathlon sanctioned Olympic distance event,
starts with a 1,500-meter open water swim in the Brazos River
followed by a mostly flat and fast 25-mile bike ride on country
roads north and west of Waco. Finishing out the race is a hilly
10-kilometer run along the Brazos River that leads to one of
the oldest suspension bridges in the United States.
Along with the Triathlon, the race also offers a great beginner
Sprint: a 400-meter swim in the Brazos River, a 12-mile bike
ride along the same country roads and a 5-kilometer run finishing
on the Suspension Bridge.
Registration is under way and costs vary based on type of event.
All participants will receive dry fit T-shirts, recyclable water
bottles and dry fit running caps. For more information, visit
