Triathlon Châteauroux Métropole

Triathlon Châteauroux Métropole takes place in Châteauroux, Indre, central France, typically in early July. The standard distances offered are S and M. The S race includes a 750m swim, a 16km road bike course, and a 5km run. The M race features a 1.5km swim, a 38km road bike course, and a 10km run. The course winds through Châteauroux streets and surrounding natural areas like lakes and ponds, avoiding a purely closed-track format. The Open S distance allows for individual or team relay participation, and the event also hosts children's and junior races. Triathlon Club Châteauroux Métropole 36 organizes the event. Châteauroux has previously hosted a sprint-format stage of the Grand Prix de triathlon, a competition featuring club teams.
