Be a Part of Triathlon History
What is it?
We’re excited to announce the Chicagoland Tri-Series is here! Join in a new tri-state triathlon challenge to complete the “BEST OF THE MIDWEST” triathlon experiences at Leon’s Triathlon, the Pleasant Prairie Triathlon, and the Chicago Triathlon!
Start your season at one of the unique and patriotic races in the country at LEON’S TRIATHLON, which also serves as the exciting MILITARY & FIRST RESPONDER’S NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS. Then continue your racing season at the midwest’s most popular SPRINT or OLYMPIC distance events, including STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS where age group, high school, and club triathletes can win state titles at both the PLEASANT PRAIRIE TRIATHLON and CHICAGO TRIATHLON!
As an added bonus, the USA Triathlon (USAT) national and state championships provide an opportunity for a higher percentage of finishers to qualify for the USAT AGE GROUP NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS which is coming back to Milwaukee, WI in 2025 and 2026!

The primary goal of the “CHICAGOLAND TRI-SERIES” (CTS) is participation – to motivate, accelerate, and celebrate triathlon becoming more accessible and fun for athletes of all ages and ability levels! All three races have historically been recognized as some of the three largest ADAPTIVE & PARA TRIATHLON supportive races in the country – helping to make triathlon more accessible in the midwest thanks to our partnerships with the Dare2Tri Paratriathlon Club (https://www.dare2tri.org). Join us in inspiring participation for a wider range of athletes of all ages, backgrounds, and adaptive ability levels to get into the great sport of triathlon!
