Race on the Base Triathlon

The Course

It's back...The Race on the Base Triathlon.  Great new "Dog Tag" style finisher's medals! Great 10 am start time

In addition to the traditional 5K Run/Walk, 10K Run, 10K Skate/Wheelchair and Kids Run/Walk we've added a Triathlon. Distances for this event are a 3 mile run, 12 mile bike and 200 meter pool swim. Participants will start with the run and end with the 200 meter pool swim. This event is perfect for those who have been interested in triathlons but don't have much open water experience. Come out and do the whole triathlon or get a couple of friends to do a relay. Either way you won't want to miss this inaugural event.

The bike and run courses are located on the Joint Forces Training Base runways. Helicopters, planes and military vehicles will line portions of the course with music through-out the course. This is a 100% flat course. Run next to strawberry fields and 3 golf courses.

Joint Forces Training Base

The Joint Forces Training Base is located at 11200 Lexington Drive, Los Alamitos, CA 90720. Please arrive at least 1-hour prior to your race to park and/or register.

All participants will need to show valid ID to enter the base!

Event Proceeds

Proceeds from this event will benefit the USA Water Polo National Training Center located on the JFTB in Los Alamitos. Proceeds from the 5K Walk will benefit the Cancer Support Center Foundation (CSF).
