Frequently Asked Questions

"Tradition!"

Historically the Tri was composed of rowing, swimming and running. With the addition of handball, we're deciding to keep the name "Tri" to honor the tradition. It's also in the spirit of not taking ourselves too seriously.

Individual: Top finishers in each sport will be awarded a medal, as well as recognition for top finishers across rowing, swimming, and running.

Team: The club with the most participation across all sports will host the celebration party

Participants will be organized into brackets, with matches scheduled throughout October and culminating in the final on October 24th.

Logistically, moving the race to a cove helps us maximize participation and keep the rowing to swimming transition feasible for participants of both sports.
