About TCOU

The Triathlon Club at Oakland University is currently comprised of 30 members and continually growing. The members are a diverse group with different strengths in the three disciplines, as well as varying performance levels. The main purpose of the Triathlon Club is to promote triathlon training and racing, and also camaraderie and support amongst its members. Triathlon is a great sport that students can continue to participate in the future after college.

Our club is currently anticipating the coming racing season, persevering the winter training regime, seeking to grow in our members and are looking for ways to provide motivation and education to our members and funding for our club.

TCOU Goals

The goal of the triathlon club is to encourage good health and fitness, success, and create a sense of belonging. Members encourage one another, helping to achieve their personal goals such as finishing a triathlon, improving in a particular discipline or simply improving their overall physical health. The success that these members feel often times carries over in their academics and careers. The club is also able to create a belonging for students who may not be able to join a 'team sport'.
