An innovative race format
Redefine your limits
TRITON 3 redefines traditional triathlon, delivering a game-changing experience for those ready to push their limits. Instead of packing all three disciplines into a single day, each sport becomes a standalone race across three or two consecutive days. This format demands far more than endurance. It challenges athletes to perform at the highest level day after day—where consistency, resilience, and strategy are pushed to the edge.
Swim - Saturday / Bike & Run - Sunday
SPRINT - MIDDLE - LONG
Individual Triathlon / Corporate Relay / Single Disciplines
An Innovative Scoring System
TRITON 3 features an innovative scoring system that awards equal weight to all three disciplines. In the TRITON 3 format, the overall winner is the athlete with the lowest combined score across the racing days. The concept is simple: your finishing position in each race discipline equals your points (the higher you place, the fewer points you score). This model rewards consistency and all-around performance across swim, bike, and run. In addition, this stage awards points toward the TRITON World Series Global Ranking and serves as an official qualifier for the World Championship

Formats that redefine the experience
Contested over two consecutive days—with the swim stage on Saturday followed by the bike and run on Sunday—TRITON delivers a dynamic stage-race format that completely reimagines the athlete experience.

Swimming
The race weekend kicks off on Saturday with the opening swim stage in the calm waters of the Hutuo River. Starting from the Hutuo River Ecological Island entry point, athletes take to the water guided by the river breeze, framed by the Taihang Mountains behind them and an expansive blue-green ecological corridor ahead—a true test of balance, composure, and grit amidst nature.
The swim course follows a 700-meter triangular loop:
- SPRINT — 1 lap
- MIDDLE — 2 laps
- LONG — 3 laps
Swimmers will complete the designated number of laps around the marked buoys before heading into the exit chute to finish the stage.
