Welcome to the Nation's Triathlon Blog!

In 2006, the first Nation's Triathlon took place in Washington, DC, with an ambitious goal: to become the largest, most organized and best-produced triathlon in the world.

Now in its third year, this stellar athletic event has partnered with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) to become the first triathlon to help cure blood cancers: leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. The first Nation's Triathlon To Benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society will take place in Washington, DC on Sept. 14, 2008. To learn more about LLS, click here.

This by-invitation blog is a means to encourage and faciliate communication within the triathelete community.

Thanks for visiting!
