Built from fatherhood, challenge, and community.

What started as a conversation between a father and son about signing up for a triathlon eventually became Dad Bod Triathlon Club.

Push the Pace. Push the Stroller. Community First. Progress Together.

The Mission

More than merch.

DBTC is a community for dads, parents, beginners, former athletes, and everyday grinders who are trying to get better without pretending life is easy.

We train hard. We show up tired. We build genuine connections through runs, rides, swims, race weekends, and the chaos of real life.
