The 2016 races will take place at Fengtai District’s Garden Expo Park in southwestern Beijing, just north of the Marco Polo Bridge/Lugouqiao.
The sprint distance race consists of a 750-meter swim, 20km cycle, and 5km run (c’mon, you can do that). The Olympic distance race is a 1,500-meter swim, 40km cycle, and 10km run (maybe next year). Olympic distance also features a relay category for teams.
The 2015 races sold out quickly, so if you’re serious about participating, sign up sooner rather than later. Click here to register for the sprint race, or here for the Olympic distance.

Site is functioning although the ability to complete payment with Alipay seems spotty.

Seems like the triathlon is proving popular again in 2016. As of 1 pm, the site is crashed! We'll update you when it's back up.
