The Rincon Triathlon began in 1982, as an athletic activity by the Rincon Community Youth Center and Dr. Hector Nazario, on behalf of the Rincon Rural Health Initiative Project. It was so popular with the town community that it was repeated the following year as part of the activities related to the Santa Rosa Festival. After this successful second event, the Rincon Triathlon became an annual event and grew in size and popularity with the Triathlete community. Eventually, the date was changed to the second Sunday of June.
In 1992, the Rincon Triathlon was formalized and became the Rincon Triathlon, Inc., with Millie Tillero as President, Samuel Sanchez as Vice President, Catalino Caro as Secretary, Danilo Rosado as Treasurer, with Juan Gonzalez, Alfredo Raffuci, Albert Morales, Angel Caro, Micky Urrutia and Manuel Rivera as officers at large. These community leaders have ensured the successful continuation of the Rincon Triathlon, which is considered the best in Puerto Rico.
Besides the directors and main volunteers, over one hundred members of the community also volunteer on the event day to help ensure our success.
As we approach our thirtieth anniversary, we'd like to recognize all who have participated in these events and who are a part of our history. To the Triathletes, volunteers, sponsors and members of the Rincon Triathlon Corporation, we extend a heartfelt thanks for making the Rincon Triathlon a successful world-class event.
