In the city of deep lakes, at the beginning of July, a race connects three special lakes that take the breath away of every competitor…
The swimming part opens in the Blue Lake (Modro jezero), followed by one of the longest and most demanding transitions in the triathlon world (T1|1.2 km).
The cycling section in which you ride one lap from the Blue Lake (Modro jezero), across the Red Lake (Crveno jezero) to the Green Lake (Zeleno jezero), is pure hedonism for every cyclist… The exceptional beauty of this area has been rewarded by the inclusion of the Blue and Red Lakes on the UNESCO list of geoparks.
The race segment offers an unforgettable experience: the ascent to the century-old fortress Topana (10th century), entering the city center in the city’s peak with the finish next to one of the 10 most beautiful football stadiums in the world (Gospin Dolac football stadium) round off a spectacular story intertwined over 515 steps …

About us
The story of the Club, its identity and vision is also highlighted on our coat of arms.
The pictogram on the coat of arms is based on a classic design that represents the position of competitors in triathlon, where segments of swimming, cycling and running alternate at the locations of natural monuments of the Blue and Red and Green Lakes. 3 lakes for 3 disciplines are also 3 laps that symbolize the desire to be better and stronger – nurturing at the same time sports and Olympic spirit. All roads in Imotski lead to the Blue Lake – its blue color is enchanting; it is the color of simplicity and nobility. The golden six-pointed star and the laid golden crescent (which are also on the coat of arms of the town of Imotski) are ancient historical symbols of beauty and youth. Triathlon is a sport, and sport has always been more than movement; it is a way of growing up, maturing, and traveling the path of life.
As part of the Blue Red Green Lake project, we want to promote triathlon as an attractive, dynamic and desirable sport, but also the City of Imotski as a sports and tourist destination.
Triathlon club Imotski was founded on 12.5.2020. in Imotski, and is also the first triathlon club in the area of Imotski and Dalmatian Zagora.

Blue Red Green Lake
BlueRedGreen | sXTRI
The swimming part opens in the Blue Lake, followed by one of the longest and most demanding transitions (T1 – 1.2 km) in the triathlon world… The cycling section in which you ride one lap from the Blue, through the Red, to the Green Lake is pure hedonism for every cyclist… The exceptional beauty of this region has also been rewarded by the recent inclusion of the Blue and Red Lakes on the UNESCO list of geoparks. In the end, entering the city center and climbing the last 100 or so steps, passing one of the 10 most beautiful football stadiums in the world with the finish within the centuries-old walls of the Topana fortress round off a spectacular story about the Imot triathlon that started on 19.07.2020
Run for the soul
As part of the BlueRedGreen Lake project, in cooperation and with the support of the Faculty of Kinesiology and Economics in Split, in addition to triathlon, we are also developing road running. We would like to see children and parents perform together at a sporting event in one place, which would be stimulating for both, but would also enrich the family album with beautiful memories.
We definitely want to attract primarily as many children as possible and give them the opportunity to feel the joy of running in their city. In the city of Tino Ujević, a race with and for the soul…
Dalmatian triathlon league
Movement in the open air, in direct contact with nature through swimming, cycling and running activities or in their combination (triathlon, duathlon, aquatlon) are a great year-round activity for all age groups!
The league is of a recreational and competitive nature, and covers the area from Imotski, Split, Brač, Trogir, Šibenik, Zadar to Dubrovnik.
Through this league, we want to promote sports and socializing, and at the same time discover and present the beauty of the Dalmatian coast and hinterland.

Marco Polo Challange
Croatian Championship in medium length triathlon
The 10th Marco Polo Challange was held in the magical and unique Korčula, in one of the most beautiful Mediterranean oases, in the culturally and historically rich treasury of our history, from 18 to 20 September 2020. The tenth anniversary was an opportunity to pay homage to this city’s first medium-length triathlon (also known as the half Ironman – 1.9 km swimming / 90 km cycling / 21.1 km running).
The track from Korčula to Vela Luka was quite demanding, and high temperatures created additional pressure on the competitors. As an introduction to the main race, the competition was held in shorter distances (sprint triathlon, relay sprint triathlon – and humanitarian road race at 5 km).
