VA Super Tri – The Live Red Foundation

The VA Super Tri is a fun, unique spin on the traditional sprint triathlon. We took a sprint triathlon and broke it up into five mini triathlons (125m swim – 2.4mi bike – 1k run) which are completed back-to-back. Youth participants will have their own race and complete just two loops of the same course. This is a great way for a new triathlete to get the experience of five triathlons in one with multiple transitions, and the experienced triathlete to challenge themselves with something new! Plus, the entire event is super spectator friendly with athletes never further than 1 mile away.

Why We Race

All Live Red Foundation events provide the funding for Live Red Foundation’s free fitness programs which teach life skills to children in low-opportunity communities. Learn more >>
