The OIE Triathlon Baumholder is a town triathlon in Baumholder, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, typically held in mid-June. It provides sprint and Olympic-style distances. The sprint race includes a 750 m swim, 20 km bike ride, and 4 km run. The Olympic-style distance involves a 1.5 km swim, 36.5 km bike ride, and 10 km run. The shorter Triathlon S format serves as an entry point for beginners, while the Triathlon M format offers a longer challenge for more experienced athletes.
The event accommodates more than just solo adult racers, featuring individual and relay events, junior races, children's courses, and categories for Jedermann competitors and age groups. This mix allows first-timers, local club athletes, younger racers, and teams sharing the three disciplines to participate. Förderverein Triathlon und Stadtlauf organizes the event, with Günter Heinz as the contact person. Participant targets suggest a local race with approximately 100 individual starters for the longer distance and 50 for the sprint.
