By giving back and strengthening and empowering our communities through our involvement with various causes, we ultimately strengthen and empower ourselves and help build a brighter future for all. Having Fun: It’s not all about sweating through a workout! We encourage the establishment of long lasting friendships that go beyond sports.

We see things through to the very end whether it be the successful completion of an endurance event or acharitable one.

The TriLatino family conducts itself in a professional, friendly and approachable manner. Welcome! What is TriLatino?

We are a newly formed not-for-profit triathlon club with membership of over 45 athletes serving the New York/New Jersey area, dedicated to increasing the number of Latinos in endurance sports and promoting healthy lifestyles for people of all ages. In addition, TriLatino is dedicated to giving back to our community by aligning ourselves with various charitable organizations such as the Hispanic Scholarship Fund. We are currently in the process of creating a TriLatino Scholarship to help deserving Hispanic student-athletes afford a college education. The sport of triathlon is GROWING RAPIDLY year by year in the United States, however Latinos, the 2nd fastest growing ethnic group in the country, are still largely underrepresented in the sport. There is tremendous potential for growth in this segment and TriLatino is currently in the best position to fill this gap locally and, in the near future, nationally.
