The Supersprint format is featured in several events across the UK, like the London Triathlon Super Sprint held at the Royal Victoria Dock. Don't forget the Crystal Palace Triathlon which also offers a Super Sprint distance at the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre in London.
The good news is, you can find the Supersprint distance internationally too!
In France 🇫🇷, check out the Triathlon des Pyrénées. Meanwhile, in Italy 🇮🇹, the Triathlon MTB Di Predazzo offers stunning landscapes 🏃♀️ 🌿.
That's not all, more events can be found on Finishers.
We are confident that the Supersprint format is perfect for you if you're new to the triathlon world, offering an introduction without diving into an overwhelming challenge.
For a little bit of history, it's also the distance used in relay events at international competitions, as you saw at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and will see again at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Who knows, maybe one day you'll be an Olympian too!
The new generation platform that allows all runners, whatever their level, to (re)discover the French territory and heritage, by finding the races that suit them.
