TriSprint

!Detailed information per year (dates, prices, registration etc.) will only be updated in the Norwegian version!

Since the autumn of 2015, NTNUI Triathlon has arranged the NTNUI TriSprint approximately around mid-September. The goal of the TriSprint is that everyone who wants to test triathlon should have the opportunity to do so, and that those who are more experienced get a nice competition at the end of the season.

The competition is open to everyone, even those who are not students. The trail for TriSprinten is identical to the trail that has been used during the Student Championship since 2016 , and the same rules apply for both competitions.

In the autumn of 2019, paratriathlon was arranged during the TriSprint for the first time. You can find the rules for the para-classes here. We want everyone to have the opportunity to participate in our events, and if you do not quite know if you can join – message us, and we will find a solution!

Trisprint:
The swimming takes place indoors in Pirbadet in 50m lanes. There will be 4-5 people per lane, and two lanes will compete at the same time. There will also be a separate lane (25m) that can be used for warming up before start.

The heats will be divided according to registered swimming times, where the fastest starts first. Registration of times must be done at the same time as the registration.

Para class:
Swimming takes place indoors in Pirbadet, and you swim in 25- or 50m lanes, depending on what the athlete wants. There will also be a separate 25m warm-up lane that can be used before you start. It is allowed for the practitioner to use helping personnel or equipment such as a pullbuoy, swimming belt, or other.

Biking

TriSprint:
The participants will start biking in an order based on the results from swimming. The route goes back and forth lsvika-Flakk, and is about 19 km. Remember that you are biking on a car road, and it will be open to normal traffic. Also note that we have one class for “road bikes” and one for “other bikes”. So it is possible to use any kind of bike for the competition.

Para class:
The route  is back and forth Ilsvika, and is ca. 10km. Note that you are driving on a country road, and it will be open to normal traffic. All bicycles are welcome, both with and without an auxiliary engine. Read competition rules for marking the bicycle.

TriSprint:
After cycling, you enter the T2, and here you put down the bike, and go directly on to the race. The running stage goes over two laps from Ilsvika to Ila, and is a total of ca. 4.5 km.

Para class:
After cycling, you enter the T2 (change zone), and here you put down the bike, and go directly on to the race. The athlete may have an assistant who assists the athlete from cycling to any wheelchair or the like. The running stage is anything from 1100 meters (1 lap) to a maximum of 4 laps (4.5 km).
