About the Club
The Bridgewater Triathlon Club was founded by its first President, Anne Miller, in April 2002. The first Fancy Lake practice followed in May. The Club was beginner focused, with the aim of participants completing their first triathlon the same season they joined. Some of the original Club members are still members today.
The Bridgewater Triathlon Club provides a safe and supportive environment for new and experienced triathletes in the pursuit of their personal goals for swimming, biking and running. We also host an annual multi-sport event -- the Riverport Duathlon.
The club conducts a series of practices and events throughout the year. We also inform our members about related events that may be beneficial to multi-sport athletes.
Who are your members?
Just about an even split between male and female from 13 to 60+. While everyone's interests and goals are unique, everyone participates in (some even enjoy!) physical activity at a level appropriate for their fitness.
Registration for the upcoming 2024 season is now open.
