Since 1989, the City of Brigantine has been involved in the Brigantine Beach Triathlon. Every year since its inception, the race has benefited various entities in Brigantine including the Marine Mammal Stranding Center, the American Red Cross, the Brigantine Board of Education and the Brigantine Community Education and Recreation Department (CER). Local Police, Fire, EMS. Department of Public Works, the Beach Patrol, Emergency Management, the NJ State Police, US Coast Guard, the City Manager and City Council and Mayor of Brigantine are all intimately involved in making this race a success, year after year.
The swim course is a floating start, athletes will swim out 1/4 mile, turn back and swim to the City dock where they will have a beach finish. This course can often be challenging due to tidal influence. The race is then followed by a scenic 11 mile bike ride around the Island of Brigantine. The athletes return to 26th Street dock area where they will drop their bikes and don their running shoes for a 4 mile run to the North end of Brigantine and back. After the event all athletes will have time to relax at the 26th Street Recreation Complex with lunch, a DJ, and awards ceremony.
