What it costs

Texas State Triathlon Club

Member Page

The sport of triathlon can be quite expensive. One of the goals of the TXS triathlon team is to make the sport as affordable as possible for those that are interested in joining our team.

The cost of competing in triathlon can really add up with race fees, travel costs, lodging, coaching, apparel, etc. When you join the TXS team you are provided all of these expenses when you choose to compete with the team.

The triathlon team continues to be one of the lowest cost sport clubs on campus despite the costs to compete in the sport.
