Tupper Lake Tinman Triathlon

Nestled in the heart of the Adirondacks, the Tupper Lake Tinman Triathlon is a seminal event that has been drawing athletes and enthusiasts to its picturesque grounds since 1983. Held at the Tupper Lake Municipal Park on Demars Boulevard, this triathlon is one of the longest-running and most revered in the United States.

Ideal for both beginners looking to dip their toes into the world of triathlons and seasoned athletes seeking a final tune-up before major events like the Lake Placid Ironman, the Tupper Lake Tinman offers a variety of racing classes. Participants can choose from the Tinman (a half Iron 70.3 with a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike, and 13.1-mile run), Aquabike, Relay, Olympic, and Sprint distances, each carefully designed to test endurance and celebrate camaraderie.

Set against the backdrop of pristine lakes, hiking trails, and the charming town of Tupper Lake, this event is as much about the natural beauty of the Adirondacks as it is about the competition. With its rich history and welcoming atmosphere, the Tupper Lake Tinman Triathlon is not just a race, but an immersive experience that combines athleticism with the allure of a quintessential mountain town. Whether you’re a competitor or a spectator, this event promises an unforgettable weekend of adventure and community.
