On January 19, compete in 20-minute intervals of running, biking, and swimming, with awards given based on age groups. The triathlon is held at the Older Person’s Commission (OPC) in Rochester and is open to the public.
Annual Indoor Triathlon at OPC
As a slightly moderated version of the classic three-part race, the Indoor Triathlon is accessible for teens through older adults at all fitness levels. Heats begin at 11:30 a.m. and will continue throughout the afternoon.
Event timers will track each leg of the race as participants complete each portion at their own pace. Fees for individuals are $40 for OPC members and $45 for non-OPC members. Groups are $25 per person for one event and $35 per person for two. No gender restrictions will be made for those competing on teams of two or more.
Jeremey Ridky, Fitness Coordinator at OPC said, “We have families with 3-4 generations participating, sometimes as a team! Our youngest last year was Gabriel Barba, 11, and our oldest was Marvin Stevenson, 83,” he shared. “Because the events are timed and you get to work at your own pace, those that may not be ready for a traditionally formatted Triathlon can still participate in ours!”
