Just minutes from historic Williamsburg, VA and next door to the original Jamestown Settlement, the Jamestown Triathlon is a great mid-season race. The swim takes place at beautiful Jamestown beach where you can watch Osprey catch their breakfast or see a pod of dolphins swim along the course. The bike course is flat, fast and parallels the Cap-Cap bike trail along Rt. 5. The run course is simply amazing as it winds through historic farmland and forest on a combination of bike paths and jogging trails. Be sure to stay for the weekend to experience all that the greater Williamsburg area has to offer, including the new Billsburg Brewery, the Jamestown Settlement and so much MORE.

Be part of the great experience. Here are some comments from last year’s Jamestown Triathlon race.
"This was my first triathlon and I was extremely nervous but I can honestly say I don’t think I could have had a better first experience than at the Jamestown Triathlon. The overwhelming support from the crew and other athletes made you feel like you could take on the world." bib# – 152 |
"Jamestown Triathlon 2021 was a day to remember. It was fantastic to be in the midst of hundreds of people without having to mask up. From the first splash in the James River to the icy cold towel after finishing the race, this event felt as much like a family reunion as it did an athletic competition. It felt like the people who facilitated this event, put their heart and soul into it." bib# – 734 |
"I’ve been racing Kineticmultisport races for a number of years now. The Kinetic staff and volunteers make every racer feel like they’re important. No matter their experience level or the division they race." bib# – 23 |

Time Trial Swim Start: Kinetic Multisports races utilize a time trial swim start. We'll start two (2) athletes at a time every few seconds. Athletes line up based on swim and overall finish times, faster up front, slower in the back to create a smoother race for everyone.
Elite Box Start: In conjunction with our time trial swim starts we are excited to announce the official addition of the Elite Box Start at select races. If you are in contention to get Top 20 Overall Male/Female or just want to race up front, this is for you. Simply work your way to the front of the swim start area on race day. We'll get you lined up and started first, then athletes two at time every few seconds thereafter. The Elite Box Start concept worked well at many races last year and we are excited to add this feature to more races.
