From the Race Organizer
ALASKA WOMEN’S GOLD NUGGET TRIATHLON The Gold Nugget Triathlon is dedicated to improving the lives of women and girls through athletics. The Gold Nugget Triathlon Board of Directors believes that our women’s triathlon is more than just a one-day event. Women and girls train for this event year-round and many sign up as a way of kick-starting a brand new training and fitness regime. They often find this to be a life changing experience. Mothers and daughters train for this event together, as do groups of friends and colleagues. We are super excited to continue in the new tradition of a full in-person triathlon with 1,650 racers, along with a virtual triathlon option for those who want to challenge their family and friends from across the country. Come on ladies...send those emails out and 'get-on your challenges' with friends and family. We look forward to seeing you at the 2026 Gold Nugget Triathlon.
