Bermuda’s premier triathletes are set to showcase the island’s sporting reach across two continents on May 16th, 2026, with major assignments looming in both Asia and North America.
In Japan, Olympian Erica Hawley spearheads the Bermudian interest at the 2026 World Triathlon Championship Series Yokohama. Hawley, who has consistently proven her pedigree at the highest level of the sport, finds herself in a formidable field of 70 Elite Females. The Yokohama circuit is renowned for its technical demands and world-class depth, providing a vital litmus test for Hawley as she continues her campaign on the world's most prestigious triathlon tour.
Meanwhile, the focus shifts to Mexico as Nicholas Pilgrim prepares for a high-stakes encounter at the 2026 Americas Triathlon Cup Ixtapa. Pilgrim is slated to join the Men’s Elite startline, facing a competitive field in a race that offers crucial points for the regional rankings.
The dual-continental appearances highlight the sustained growth and international presence of Bermuda's triathlon program. With Hawley testing herself against the global elite in the East and Pilgrim aiming for a podium finish in the West, May 16th promises to be a pivotal date for the island’s high-performance athletes.
