Swim, Bike, and Run in the Las Catalinas TRI
February 8th, 2020
The Las Catalinas Triathlon is Guanacaste’s premier off road triathlon, and covers over 40km of town’s trails, beaches, waterfront, and streets. The TRI started in 2013 with 160 competitors, and in the ensuing years the event has grown to host over 400 racers who work solo or in teams to race across all that town and the surrounding environment have to offer.
Past winners include current Olympian Leo Chacón and XTerra World Champion Rom Akerson, and the event as a whole is inclusive for many different skill levels, offering a team relay option, the Aguas Abiertas two-distance swimming competition, and the kids’ race through the streets of town.

Spend TRI Weekend in Las Catalinas
TRI Weekend is a lively time to be in town, and an experience for the whole family. The walkable town, sea, and trails of Las Catalinas invite everyone to explore and pursue outdoor activities like mountain biking, kayak and stand up paddle, trail running and hikes, beachfront yoga, snorkeling, and more.
There are shops to explore, a gourmet supermarket for fresh and flavorful home cooked meals, and a colorful collection of restaurants and cafés. There’s also a day spa and beach club, which provide places to relax and recover both before and after the event.
