SCHEDULE
Save these dates! We know that our
races will be early morning. Really early morning. But if you are in Europe or
in America, these times will be just perfect for enjoying one of the best shows
in Tokyo! And the best thing about being the early birds? There will be
absolutely nothing else going on in Tokyo at the same time as our races, so you
really have no excuse not to tune in!
START LISTS
The athlete number and transition
position was assigned by a random draw and are grouped together by their
National Federation, so unlike a World Triathlon race, these numbers have no
relation to the ranking of the athlete.

MIXED RELAY
The Triathlon Mixed Relay format
showcases racing at its most thrilling, with the individual sport combining
with pure team spirit. After many years as a firm fixture on the World
Triathlon calendar with multiple events, the Mixed Relay will make its official
Olympic debut in Tokyo 2020.
Four athletes - two male & two
female - from the same National Federation will form the teams. Athletes must
complete a super-sprint triathlon - 300m swim, 6.8km bike and 2km run - before
tagging off to a teammate, always in the order female-male-female-male. Among
the most exciting aspects of these races for spectators is the athletes’
dramatic sprint and dive after being tagged by their teammate, as well as the
intensity and speed from start to finish, the tight back-and-forth lead changes
and team pride that this innovative racing format elicits.
THE VENUE
Triathlon events will take place at
Odaiba Bay.
