What this race demands

The Long Beach Triathlon is a multi-sport event covering an Olympic distance of 51.5 km along the Southern California coastline.

Multi-Sport Transitions

Athletes must manage three distinct disciplines sequentially, requiring efficient transitions between swimming, cycling, and running.

Distance Endurance

The 51.5 km total distance demands sustained cardiovascular endurance across all three legs without excessive fatigue.

Aim for 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to sustain energy levels across the multi-sport duration.
