Support Us

Virginia Tech Triathlon is a completely student-run program. While we recieve some financial support from Virginia Tech, we are mostly funded by semester dues, fundraising, and donations. Triathlon is an expensive sport. Between swim gear, bikes, running shoes, nutrition, and race entry fees, it would cost athletes thousands of dollars per year to compete on their own. 

One of our primary goals is to grow the sport of triathlon by eliminating financial barriers to entry that discourage many athletes. As a team, we cover travel, lodging, race fees, and provide equipment to our triathletes so that they do not have to pay out-of-pocket. Our team puts in countless hours each year working athletic events and local races to make this possible. Still, we rely on support from family, friends, and alumni to keep the club running.
