PLEASE NOTE: The course is not available for preview, because it is on private property. This especially applies to the swim. Do not swim, bike, or run the course before race day.
The Full Stanford Treeathlon is a sprint distance triathlon, which consists of the following three events:
500 Meter Open-Water Swim: A quick, lifeguard-supervised swim through a protected cove of the Port of Redwood City (an offshoot of the San Francisco Bay). The water temperature in February/March can be chilly (low 60s), and A WETSUIT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED. The swim will start in waves of approximately 5 minutes.
Concerned about the South Bay water quality? We diligently test the water quality to ensure safe race conditions for the swim.
20 Kilometer Bike: Three fast and flat lollipop loops down Seaport Blvd and around a nearby office park loop.
5 Kilometer Run: Out and back along the bike course on Seaport Blvd.
