2024 Middle & long Distance Triathlons

9/16/2024

The most frequently asked questions at Japan Multisport centers on races and sports events. In particular, folks are very interested in the middle to long distance races in Japan. Below is the complete list of triathlons longer than Standard/Olympic Distance that took or will take place in Japan in 2024.  

It might seem early but if you're pursuing triathlon in Japan, it's not too early to start planning your 2025 triathlon season. Generally, the season starts in Okinawa in April and ends in Okinawa in November. Triathlons are scarce in July and August due to the heat and humidity of summer in Japan - it's a lot of liability for race organizers to bear! 


Keep in mind that many (but not all) triathlons require Japan Triathlon Union (JTU) membership to sign up. JTU membership is only available to residents of Japan. In recent years, some races have began to offer one-day memberships for an additional fee (typically 1-2,000 JPY). Whatever your circumstances are, contact us if you'd like to learn more about racing in Japan.
