ConcreteMan & ConcreteKids Triathlon

We're excited to announce the MO to AR Tri Series, a thrilling triathlon trilogy that takes you from Central Missouri all the way to Northwest Arkansas to challenge athletes across various landscapes and distances along the way. The series kicks off with the Trizou for MS Triathlon at the historic University of Missouri Campus in Columbia, MO. Known for being the nation's largest pool triathlon, Trizou offers a diverse range of categories, including Kids Triathlon, 5k, Elite Sprint Triathlon, Super-Sprint, and more, set against the picturesque University of Missouri backdrop​​.

Next up is the ConcreteMan Triathlon, Missouri's oldest triathlon, which started in 1982. This event has evolved over the years, offering sprint and Olympic(ish) distances, and an open water swim. It's a staple multisport event in Missouri, known for its rich history and challenging courses​​.

The series culminates with the Trifest for MS in NW Arkansas, a significant event in the triathlon calendar. The Trifest schedule includes various events like the Celebrate Arkansas Corporate Relay Sprint Challenge and the AG Olympic F1 Triathlon, culminating in the AG Sprint Triathlon. This event is not only a competitive platform but also the largest and most well-known triathlon fundraiser in the country​​.

Participants who compete in any distance at all three events will receive an extra special medal inspired by all three races (and huge!) at Trifest in September. Moreover, those competing in the Sprint distance at all three races will be ranked, with the top 3 in each age group awarded at Trifest. This series is more than just a race; it's a testament to endurance, community, and the unyielding human spirit. Join us for an unforgettable experience across state lines!
