About the MIT:

As the season starter, the Miami International Triathlon (or simply MIT) takes place in the cool & sunny spring of the City of Miami, Florida. Besides the favorable weather & beautiful and unique course views mixed with the City's diverse Latin culture influence, the MIT is a "must-go" destination event for both professional and amateur level athletes.
