Digital Options

USA Triathlon offers members multiple ways to read USA Triathlon Magazine. With the exception of those who opt out, all members will receive a printed copy of the quarterly magazine via the U.S. Postal Service. In addition, members can view the digital version from a computer or view the iPad/iPhone version by downloading the free app in the iTunes App Store.

In our effort to be environmentally responsible, we offer members the opportunity to opt out of receiving the printed version of the magazine. To opt out and only receive the digital version, please email membership@usatriathlon.org with the member number, name and email address of the member(s) opting out.

With some exceptions, USA Triathlon Magazine uses Associated Press style. Submissions should be written using a word processor software program (Microsoft Word is preferred) and emailed as an attachment to the editor-in-chief. Be sure the subject of the email reflects what type of submission is being sent.

Current Issue: Summer 2020

The Summer 2020 issue of USA Triathlon Magazine is available now. While we, too, miss the touch and feel of a print magazine, to best navigate this financially difficult time we produced an all-digital edition of USA Triathlon Magazine. This is not a permanent move, and we do have exciting news to share about the future of USA Triathlon Magazine. In the fall, the print edition of USA Triathlon Magazine returns with an all-new, refreshed look. We can’t wait for you to see it!

We all have a deep personal connection to multisport. We all are exceptional and influential. Together, let’s find, harness and unleash our Power Within, the theme of a new campaign that we launch with this issue of USA Triathlon Magazine.

On the cover is age group triathlete Marcus Fitts, the founder of the District Triathlon Club and the new GRIT USA club in Washington, D.C. As a club leader and member, coach, community organizer and athlete, Marcus’ experiences and mission resonate across our sport. You can read his Power Within statement and the statements of 10 other athletes who embody the pillars of our Power Within campaign to reposition the sport. When you are finished reading, we encourage you to check out www.ourpowerwithin.org and share your Power Within statement.

Speaking of accessibility, reading and listening to the experiences of Black triathletes is now more important than ever, as conversations — no matter how difficult — about diversity and racism are central to achieving a culture of equality within multisport. On Page 34, meet six Black triathletes who are committed to diversifying the sport they so love.
