Description
The Triathlon Club at Iowa State exists to bring together students, staff, and Ames community members who have a passion for swimming, biking, and running. We welcome first-time triathletes to those who compete at regional, national, and world championship races. We represent Iowa State University as a member of the Midwest Collegiate Triathlon Conference (MWCTC). We race throughout the Midwest and attend the USA Triathlon Collegiate National Championship each spring. Check out our Practice Schedule to see where we meet each day. Whether you’re new to the sport or a seasoned veteran, we hope you’ll join us!
