Dear fellow multisport athletes,
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce that Tritonman, originally scheduled for February 13/14th, 2021, is cancelled.
This decision is based upon the following considerations: The San Diego Parks and Recreation office is not issuing large gathering permits. At this time, University of California, San Diego Club Sports programs are not permitted to travel to or host competitions during the winter quarter. Lastly, given that Tritonman attracts over 500 athletes from all across the Western states and includes draft legal racing, it is not possible for us to host the race in a safe manner.
We know many may be itching for a return to racing, but it is the responsibility of our community to practice safe sport and not place undue risk on our friends, family, and coworkers. We are optimistic that a return to safe racing is possible in 2021, but February is too early for our event. A rescheduled date may be chosen for later in 2021, but in either case we look forward to seeing all your smiling faces at Tritonman 2022.
In health,
UCSD Triathlon Club
