Hyannis 2 Triathlon

Hyannis 2 Triathlon is a multisport event held in Barnstable, Massachusetts, on September 12, 2026, with most waves starting at 7:00 AM and the sprint relay and sprint duathlon going off at 7:30 AM. The menu is wide: an Olympic Triathlon and Olympic Relay built around a roughly 0.9-mile swim, a Sprint Triathlon and Sprint Relay with a quarter-mile swim, Olympic and Sprint Aquabike options, a Sprint Duathlon with about 40 feet of climbing, and an Olympic Aquathon.

This is the kind of event where a whole household can race the same morning at different levels. The sprint formats and relays suit first-timers and runners adding a swim or bike to their routine, while the Olympic distances reward athletes with a season of consistent multisport training. Aquabike and duathlon let you skip the discipline you like least. Practice open-water swimming before race day, and rehearse transitions, since they are the easiest place to gain or lose minutes.
