Downtown Austin Texas with capital and riverfront

Cal Tri Events is kickstarting its new race season this year at 2025 Athletica Cal Tri Austin on March 30, 2025.

Athletes from 30 US states and five countries, aged 7-75, will travel to ‘The Live Music Capital of the World’ to compete in 19 separate race formats including: triathlon, runbikerun, swimbike, swimrun, swim and run at both the sprint and Olympic distances.

45% of the participants will be first time multisport athletes, and the organising team note that a large group of spectators will be on hand taking in all the action and cheering their favourite athletes.

Athletica is the event’s title sponsor. Its AI-driven coaching platform provides personalized, adaptive training plans designed for athletes of all levels.

Leading up to race day Cal Tri Events and Athletica aim to ensure that every athlete, from beginner to seasoned competitor, has the tools and confidence to succeed on race day.

A special all-women’s event, courtesy of PinkStrong, has been added to the race: PinkStrong RunBikeRun (2.5 km run, 19 km bike, 2.5 km run). This is in celebration of Women’s History Month.

PinkStrong & Cal Tri Events are encourageing athletes to celebrate their journey and achievements, regardless of their finish times, and highlight participant milestones, from first-time finishes to standout performances. All revenue from the PinkStrong RunBikeRun will be donated to PinkStrong.

Saturday’s Athletica Free Swim & Coaching Clinic (90 minutes) sees athletes receive instruction and practice the ‘five focals of faster swimming’ followed by dryland instruction to get race ready. The session is free to registered athletes courtesy of Athletica.
