Forget everything you know about a traditional triathlon. The Wareing's Beach Bum Classic is all about embracing the beach lifestyle with a race that's equal parts competition, fun, and pure Virginia Beach spirit.

This isn't your typical swim-bike-run. Instead, you'll tackle three iconic beach disciplines:
🏃 2K Sand Run – Feel the burn as you race across the sand.
🚲 5K Beach Cruiser Ride – Cruise the boardwalk and oceanfront on a single-speed beach cruiser. That's right—no geared bikes allowed! This leg keeps the competition fun, fair, and true to the laid-back beach culture.
🏄 1K Surfboard Paddle – Finish your race the only way a true beach athlete should—paddling through the Atlantic Ocean to the finish.
Whether you're a seasoned competitor or just looking for one of the most memorable events you'll ever do, the Beach Bum Classic delivers an experience unlike any other. You'll race alongside fellow beach lovers, soak up the ocean views, and earn bragging rights for completing one of the most unique endurance events on the East Coast.
The Wareing's Beach Bum Classic isn't just a race—it's a Virginia Beach tradition.
