A much as possible, I now run on trails & soft surface (age catches up with all of us at some point). Any recommendations for triathlons with trail runs? With the miles I now run weekly, I'd be interested in races with runs of 10 miles or less. I bought a gravel bike last year, but I haven't done a gravel bike race or triathlon. Any recommendations for a first gravel tri?

Xterra New Jersey allows both gravel and mountain bikes.
Sea to Summit in New Hampshire has a hike to the top of Mt. Washington instead of a traditional "run".
Ugly Dog in Michigan.
There is a whole series of USAT gravel triathlons, I'm not familiar with all the races but I'm sure the info is easy to find.

The run @ Harvest in MA (mid-June) is a trail (sand) run

Delta Lake in upstate NY has a run with most of it on trails. (at least it did last time I raced)
If the American Zofingen duathlon is still around - it was 100% trails.

It may be helpful for us to know what part of the earth you plan to race in.

USAT has a gravel series, so check that out. If in the midwest, Tri4 Health puts on a number in Michigan. My favorite race has been the Dirty Mitten, which this year is the National Championship race.

I live in NC, but retired & enjoy traveling in our RV, so I'm up for a road trip to races almost anywhere in the US.
If you wanted an international race, Challenge Wānaka's run leg is on trails. Beautiful race too.
