Omaha to Host 2025 USA Triathlon Multisport National Championships Festival

The 2025 USA Triathlon Multisport National Championships Festival will take place at Lake Cunningham in Omaha, Nebraska, on June 4–8, 2025, the national governing body has announced.

The event, held in partnership with Omaha Sports Commission, will be returning to the city for a second year in a row. It will take place over five days with 12 events across multiple race formats along with nine National Championship Events. In addition to racing for age group national championships, athletes will also be able to qualify to represent Team USA at the 2026 World Triathlon Age Group World Championships.

“We can’t wait to return to Omaha next year” said Victoria Brumfield, chief executive officer of USA Triathlon. “The Omaha Sports Commission and the City of Omaha really rolled out the welcome mat this year. The multisport festival continues to evolve and has really become so much more than racing; it’s a time to come together as a community and celebrate multisport and all of our athletes.”

All races will be held at Lake Cunningham, a 390-acre lake surrounded by a 1,050-acre park. The lake was constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for flood control and recreation and opened to the public in 1977.

“We are excited that USA Triathlon is continuing the partnership for a second year with the Omaha community,” said Lindsay Toussant Brown, executive director of Omaha Sports Commission. “Lake Cunningham is an ideal venue for the sport of triathlon. We can’t wait to see all the athletes, volunteers, and spectators back for year two.”

The five days of racing kick off on Wednesday, June 4 with an open water swim competition and continue into Thursday with the Standard Aquabike National Championships (1500m swim, 40k bike) the Super Sprint Triathlon Time Trial National Championships (250m swim, 5k bike, 1k run) and the Super Sprint Time Trial Duathlon (1k run, 5k bike, 1k run).

Friday’s races include the Standard Duathlon National Championships (10k run, 40k bike, 5k run) and swim-run athletes will compete in the Aquathlon National Championships (1,000m swim, 5k run).

Saturday will include the Draft-Legal Sprint Triathlon (750m swim, 20k bike, 5k run) as well as the Draft-Legal Duathlon National Championships (5k run, 20k bike, 2.5k run). Draft-legal racing, where athletes ride in packs on the bike, is the format of racing contested on the World Triathlon and Olympic stages.

Racing will conclude on Sunday with the Mixed Relay Triathlon, Individual Medley Triathlon and Mixed Relay Duathlon.

“We look forward to having this wonderful event in our city and good luck to the athletes participating in the event,” said Mark Rath, Visit Omaha director of sports.
