About Big Island Triathlon Company

More than a club. We’re a mindset

Who We Are

We’re serious triathletes who enjoy putting in the hard work to see how far we will go. We show up ready to give it our best and trust our training and our abilities – on race day and with every workout.

We’re less about telling people what we do and who we are as a Company and more about knowing who we are: a collective of like-minded athletes, loving the sport and enjoying the hard work; relishing the success of accomplishing a tough workout or a grueling race; supporting each other whether in group workouts or race day and enjoying the company and camaraderie of our team!

How Far Will You Go?

Every athlete starts somewhere. Some members are preparing for their first sprint triathlon. Others are chasing personal records, Ironman finishes, national qualifications, or world championship opportunities. Wherever you’re starting, your next goal is waiting.

About the Club

More than a Team

Big Island Triathlon Company began in 2025 when a group of athletes training together under a shared coach decided to build something bigger than themselves.

Today, our community includes first-time triathletes, experienced Ironman athletes, and everyone in between. Some members are pursuing national and world championship qualifications, while others simply enjoy the challenge of training and competing alongside like-minded athletes.

What connects us isn’t pace or podium finishes—it’s a commitment to showing up, putting in the work, and supporting one another along the way.
