The Sassenberger Triathlon, a volunteer-organized event at Feldmarksee in Sassenberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, has been held annually since 1987. It provides multiple race distances on the same day, ranging from a sprint (700 m swim, 23 km bike, 5 km run) to a middle distance (1.9 km swim, 89 km bike, 20 km run). The event is organized by VfL Sassenberg 1926 e.V., Triathlon Department, and is sanctioned by the Nordrhein-Westfälischer Triathlon-Verband.
The swim takes place in Feldmarksee, a distinct local feature, before participants proceed to the bike and run courses. The event accommodates individual participants, including age-group competitors, and offers a relay format for teams. The sprint distance typically draws the largest field, with significant participation also seen in the short, custom longer, and middle distances. Competitors travel from throughout Germany and internationally, yet the event retains the character of a club-organized, volunteer-run competition rather than a corporate brand race.
