The Cayman Islands Turtle Tri has been around for many years. Many will remember it as the Pirates Week Triathlon or the Bank of Butterfield (Butterfield Bank) Triathlon.
The Turtle Tri offers two events and is open to Individuals and Relay Teams. Team participation is encouraged, especially for those who perhaps aren’t as confident in completing the entire course on their own (this year anyway) Being part of a team provides the opportunity to complete the distance with others who share a common goal and can be heaps of fun.
The Olympic or ‘International’ distance consists of a 1500-metre swim, 40 km bike, and a 10 km run. This distance is by far the most common.
The Sprint distance event involves a 750 metre swim, 20 km bike, and a 5 km run.
