USAT Sanctioned Event

DON’T forget that this year’s race shares the weekend with three other great events: The Pensacola Beach Songwriter’s Festival, the Pensacola Beach Arts and Wine Festival and the Sea Turtle Triathlon for kids. The SRITRI and these three fine events will make this a GREAT destination weekend!!

Special Thanks

This event depends on our fantastic sponsors and volunteers. Without either we would not be able to put on such a great race. Our generous sponsors are listed below and deserve our gratitude.

Many, many THANKS to all our triathletes, sponsors, volunteers, staff, the SRIA and the visitors to Santa Rosa Island for contributing to a tremendous success on October 1st! The 16th annual Santa Rosa Island Triathlon was over the top in so very many ways.

Results Event Timing posted the results online at the conclusion of the race – you can view them at their website which is listed in the Links on the right side of this page.

Brightroom Photography was again at our race taking action shots of the triathletes. They contact the SRITRI athletes with purchase opportunities. Their website, which contains pictures from the 2005-2011 SRITRIs, is listed in the Links on the right side of this page.

Carrabbas will again provide their special food for the post-race party that you will not want to miss. The past two years Carrabbas has generously provided an outstanding meal that our triathletes and volunteers couldn’t stop complimenting. The party will also highlight sandwiches from Subway and other refreshments including Bud Light along with music, white sands and the Gulf of Mexico in the background. You won’t want to miss the fantastic celebration. Tickets will be available for family and friends.

Today, Lindsey Ellis finished the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon despite having Cerebral Palsy. She has done it before with her Aunt, Wendy Ellis. This year as Wendy got ready to take Lindsey out in the raft, she cut her foot badly and her friend Carmen jumped into action to take Wendy’s place. See one of our earlier posts that  describes how team Because They Can, does this event.
