In an effort to reduce waste, no disposable cups will be provided and athletes must use their HydraPak cup or reusable water bottle at the refill stations on the Run Course.
Did you know? From start to finish, the average runner in a 10K will go through approximately 4 – 6 paper cups throughout the
course of their race. If you multiply that by the 2000+ racers participating in the NYC Triathlon, you get a lot of cups!
This year we are working to reduce our environmental footprint by putting a reusable alternative into the hands of our Triathletes – all registered athletes will receive a HydraPak SpeedCup in their goodie bag for use at the touchless run course aid stations.
Athletes must bring their HydraPak cup, or their own reusable water bottle, with them on the run course in order to refill with water or Gatorade during the race.
