The series highlights prominent women’s races across the country that give female athletes, from beginner to experienced, a space to celebrate and engage with other women in the multisport community.?

As part of USA Triathlon’s commitment to and support for local racing, each event in the USA Triathlon’s Women’s Series receives increased marketing and communications support to drive registration, including promotion on USA Triathlon’s website and social media pages.
