This is one of 4 races of its kind in the United States. MSE Racing, 370 Lakeside Park, USA Triathlon, and World Triathlon are proud to bring this to 370 Lakeside Park in St. Peters, Missouri. It will be an exciting and valuable event to the participants and to the multi-sport community. It is not like any of the other triathlons that MSE Racing produces. The races will all be contained within the park. Below are some details about what will be happening over the April weekend!

Invitation only. This is a new event that World Triathlon started in 2022 and at The Gateway Triathlon the para athletes will have the opportunity to experience the relay format. After the great success of the Mixed Relay at the Olympics in Tokyo, the Para Mixed Relay shares the same principles, but adapted to a competition with Para triathletes. Each team will be comprised of four athletes (two men and two women). Each team member will cover a complete triathlon race/distance (draft illegal): (125- 150m Swim, 3,5 - 4km Bike and 0,8 - 1km Run). The total time for the team is from the start of the 1st athlete until the finish of the athlete doing the 4th full distance. A team may be comprised of three athletes (at least one of different gender) with a non-PTWC athlete able to complete two (non-consecutive) legs.

The purpose of NTDR Series is to provide a draft-legal pathway to a USAT Elite License and a competitive domestic race series for Elite Development athletes. U23 Elite athletes and U25 Amateur athletes are eligible for the $3000 prize purse - split evenly between men and women.

If there is not a full field, athletes 26-30 years old will be allowed to register on a case-by-case basis.
