Get ready for the ultimate reverse triathlon in beautiful Pasadena! Run/Bike/Swim OR participate in the duathlon and Run/Bike/Run.
Triathlon ‘Reverse’
5k Run, 15k Bike, and 150 Meter Swim
A reverse triathlon is the best way to get into the sport. Athletes start on Seco Blvd. (south side of the Rose Bowl) and run (1) loop around the Rose Bowl. There is a slight incline for the first part of the run, and then a slight downhill as runners return to the transition area to get on their bike. The bike is (3) loops around the Rose Bowl. There’s uphills, downhills and best of all, no cars! After the bike portion, athletes will run down to the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center, jump in, and swim (3) laps in the pool.
This race is perfect for new triathletes and seasoned competitors.
Make sure to check out the triathlon clinics hosted by the Pasadena Triathlon Club to help you prepare for race day and get all your questions answered.

Duathlon
5k Run, 15k Bike, 5k Run
Let’s face it, the duathlon is actually harder than the triathlon with two 5k runs hugging a 15k bike ride. A duathlon cuts out the swim and is a favorite among people looking to do something different, without getting their hair wet. Athletes start on Seco Blvd. (south side of the Rose Bowl) and run (1) loop around the Rose Bowl. There is a slight incline for the first part of the run, and then a slight downhill as runners return to the transition area to get on their bike. The bike portion consists of (3) loops around the Rose Bowl. Athletes then return to the transition area, drop of their bike, and head out for one more running loop around the Rose Bowl.
