About the Corpus Christi Triathlon

 The Corpus Christi Triathlon in beautiful downtown Corpus Christi offers four race options.  The Sprint, Sprint Relay, Mini Sprint and Duathlon (Run/Bike/Run).  The course can be challenging for new and experienced triathletes.  The open water swim in Corpus Christi Bay will have wave starts (many athletes swimming side by side).  The bike is an “open course” down and back scenic Ocean Drive which means that although law enforcement will be present, the roads will be open to regular vehicular traffic.  There are some small hills on the bike course.  The run course is a flat route through downtown. Please do not attempt this race unless you are well trained and prepared.  All finishers will receive a custom finisher medal. *While the course will be marked, it is the responsibility of the participant to know the course so please study the maps below to ensure you follow the correct course. PLEASE NOTE MAPS ARE LIKELY TO BE UPDATED SOON
