Triatlón de Gran Tarajal is a June sprint triathlon held on the island coast, with sand nearby and Gran Tarajal’s streets forming much of the course after the swim. The event provides an individual sprint, a three-person sprint team option, and a youth category, accommodating solo racers, relay teams, and younger athletes on the same day.
The format includes a swim, followed by a road bike leg, and concludes with an asphalt run. The course combines a coastal setting, urban streets, and some natural island terrain, differentiating it from a closed circuit event. This marks the fifth edition of the Gran Tarajal triathlon, and it was noted as the first event on a Fecantri calendar. The local description refers to the sprint distance as “the distance that makes everyone agree,” suitable for teams and beginners, yet challenging for experienced competitors.
