2019: The Year in Triathlon

It’s hard to believe that 2019 has come to an end, but what a year it was! From traveling to IRONMAN events around the globe, to launching new product and adding hundreds of athletes to the Quintana Roo family, the QR team had a busy and exciting year.

Before jumping into 2020, we wanted to recap some of our favorite 2019 moments and take time to thank all of our athletes, employees and QR enthusiasts for an incredible year. Without you, we wouldn’t be doing what we do best – giving athletes the tools they need to perform their best.

2020 has big shoes to fill, but we’re ready to set new records alongside our family of athletes. Happy New Year!

EVENTS + ATHLETE RESULTS

Every year, the QR team travels to IRONMAN and USA Triathlon events all over the globe to offer service and athlete support to all QR owners. This year was special – we watched age group and professional triathletes cross the finish line surpassing their goals & had one of the best IRONMAN World Championship bike counts we’ve ever had.
