I am interested in training for a mini-triathlon. Please send me information for a race in my area in about 6-9 months.

Hi Kathi,
Thank you for contacting TriathaNewbie.com!

We have a section on TriathaNewbie.com that breaks down triathlons by state. We added the New Jersey Triathlon links below so you can check them out and decide which race would work best for you.

An important thing to consider is that 6-9 months from now, it will be Fall/Winter and pretty cold in New Jersey. All of the outdoor triathlons mentioned below will be finishing up, although there might be a few stragglers in September.

• CGI Racing - Sprint and Olympic Distances

• Jersey Shore Multi Sports - Lava Man, Born To Tri, The Great Atlantic Ocean Triathlon and Super Sprint Fitness Challenge, Vice Versa, The Allenhurst Beach Club, Allenhurst and Clam Man

• PineBarrensTri.org - Olympic Distance

• Piranha Sports - Sprints

If you are unable to find a perfect fit, give your local YMCA, community centers or fitness club a call. They run hybrid sprint/mini-triathlons during the cold months and will have the information you need to sign up.

Let us know which one you pick. We'll post your recommendation for other beginner triathletes looking for a triathlon event in New Jersey.

Also, take a few minutes to check out our Beginner Triathlete Basics information so that you have everything you need to start your training.

Be well.
