Event Sponsors

Xterra Wetsuits, an official sponsor of the Mission Bay Triathlon, will have wetsuits available to rent for the event. A triathlon type of wetsuit will keep you warmer, help you float and will probably make for a faster swim time.

Wetsuit rentals are available from XTERRA Wetsuit Rentals.
