Tomorrow is race day! 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Your gear may be ready, but your race-day brain might already be running through every possible scenario.

Take a breath.

You don’t need a perfect day. You need to race at your pace, follow the plan you practiced and make the next smart decision when something feels difficult.

Whether tomorrow is your first triathlon, your latest finish line or a chance to chase a new goal, remember to look around and enjoy the experience. Encourage another athlete, thank our incredible volunteers and let yourself take in what you’re accomplishing.

Save this carousel for race morning and send it to someone racing the San Diego Triathlon Classic with you.

We can’t wait to see you at the starting line!
