I’m so encouraged for the safe return to racing this year! USAT’s Endurance Exchange Summit this week has been such a positive experience full of great information for coaches and race directors. The tools and support resources available to us for creating safe events are invaluable! We’re really looking forward to the second half of the year as we turn the corner on this pandemic. Thank you USA Triathlon and Tri Business Intenational.

I’m here at Cowell Beach feeling sad. Perfect conditions for what would have been the 9th Annual Dip & Dash Aquathlon. I miss it! Next year for sure.

Check out our "virtually free" triathlon - Ten events to pick and choose from - $15 per event with multiple event discounts if you want to do them all! The DIY TRI is designed to give you something to do over the summer. It has all the events of Tri Santa Cruz, plus a club or group challenge and relays. We've also added a 5k or 10K run to the mix.

COVID-19 UPDATE We value our clients and athlete safety during this unprecedented crisis and shutdown. Our decisions to continue an event or transition into a creative virtual event will be decided based on guidance from our local health department, permitting agencies and shelter-in-place requirements. Each event will be decided on a case by case basis and we’ll keep you updated as soon as we have information. In the meantime please stay safe and get your exercise and trai...ning whenever and wherever you can to stay healthy and stress free. Basically - like everyone else we find ourselves making decisions and changing our minds daily. Nobody knows how this will turn out. In the meantime please stay safe and get your exercise and training whenever and wherever you can to stay healthy and stress free.

We have just come under the Shelter in Place Provisions for Santa Cruz County until April 7. That coupled with the CDC recommendation to not hold events until after May 15 is going to have some impact on the new date for Go Green. We are working with the City of Santa Cruz to reevaluate our date and have a couple of options available. We will update you as soon as possible. Since this is such a fluid environment we are not making a quick decisions without the correct le...vel of guidance from the City and Dept. Of Health. We really want to thank everyone for their support and loyalty and appreciate it more than you can ever know. We're all in this together and will strive to come to a solution that works for everyone. As for our other events we are taking them on a case by case basis and have made no plans to cancel future dates at this time. We will keep everyone up to date as time goes on.

It's Play-Off Time! Who's your favorite team? We've got some fun for you - pick you favorite team and if that team wins you'll get a registration rebate. Here's how it will work - there are 4 team codes available for your selection for the two playoff games: NINERS ... CHEESEHEADS CHIEFS TITANS Two opportunities to win: (1) The first 10 people who sign up for any of the events listed beliw will be entered into a drawing to win a refund of their entry fee (those are pretty good odds!) (2) Everyone who entered the code of the winning team of each game will receive a rebate credit of 7.5% as a reward for picking the winner (which is expected point spread odds for each game). Codes are only good until game time on Sunday, January 19 for each match-up.
