Tri for Jimmy

2024 Race update (4/12/2023):

Tri for Jimmy is a benefit for the Jimmy Fund, the fundraising arm of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute*

All events are USAT Sanctioned and require a USAT license per athlete to participate, which can be purchased with your online registration. License fees changed after registration opened and I missed it. My apologies for any confusion caused by USAT changing their pay scale and the incorrect classification of the race distances. I have no visibility to USAT transactions, so if you paid more than $13 or $6 (as a relay participant), I would contact USAT directly. I have brought it to their attention and am awaiting instructions and information to resolve.)

The three adult options offered are:

Bronze Member: Single Event Access Should be $13.

This membership gives you access and race insurance to a single racing event. A good fit for someone trying out Multisport for the first time.

2024 registration, a great gift option for your inspired but uncertain friend or loved one. This is the race to introduce the sport to athletes and non-athletes alike, as either of these races are great for beginner or seasoned triathletes, and all persons 11-years and older are welcomed and encouraged to register as an individual or as a relay team. Athena and Clydesdale categories available see FAQ for details.

The event is a charity fundraising event where all proceeds go to The Jimmy Fund, there are NO REFUNDS. No assumptions should be made that this event will not be cancelled due to a pandemic or any other outside causes, but if it does all proceeds will be donated in the name of the event and will support cancer research and patient care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc.
The event details and descriptions are based on our previous race plans, pre-COVID-19. Health and safety protocol, i.e.: social distancing, etc. modifications as needed and dictated by the sanctioning (USAT) and administrative bodies (DCR, State of MA, etc.) will be enforced. Modifications will be posted to the best extent possible and we appreciate your attention in reviewing the information presented on the website, in direct athlete emails now and over the next few months and especially during race week.
