Good luck to all Team USA pentathletes competing this week at the UIPM 2026 Pentathlon World Cup Cairo in Egypt! 🇺🇸 Wishing each of you strong performances, personal bests, and the confidence to compete boldly on the world stage. The journey toward 2028 Summer Olympics continues, and we’re cheering for you every step of the way. Go Team USA! 🇺🇸

This past weekend kicked off the first Regional event of the year at the Peachtree Pentathlon in Atlanta, GA, which saw its largest turnout to date with more than 40 athletes competing, including international athletes from Ecuador. The energy was high as athletes across multiple divisions began their season and tested their fitness early in the year. In the Senior Women’s competition, Rebecca Langrehr took the top spot, followed by Cassandra Steptoe in 2nd place and Ingrid Mayer rounding out the podium in 3rd. The Senior Men’s race saw Temirkhan Sabdenbek claim 1st place, with Luke Filar finishing 2nd and Hayden Marrs taking 3rd to complete a strong opening podium for the season. While competition was heating up in the U.S., several American athletes were also competing internationally at the Hungarian Indoor Open in Budapest. Tristen Bell advanced to the Finals after finishing 11th in his qualifying group and posting the 2nd fastest Laser Run of the round. Phaelen French, Mary Zoldak, and Jordan Towns also competed against a strong international field, gaining valuable early-season experience, but did not advance. Congratulations to all of our athletes for kicking off the season with strong performances both at home and abroad. The road to an exciting 2026 season has begun!

Congrats on USAPM Charlotte resident athlete Kian O'Boyle and Coach Kevin Thompson for taking 1st and 2nd overall in the Savage Pro Florida race- a great way to start off the season!

Tristen Bell continues to rise. Competing at the 3rd Pentathlon GB 2026 National Ranking Event, Tristen advanced from qualification into the finals — finishing 8th overall against a strong international field. Since the US National Championships in December, Tristen has made significant gains in the Obstacle discipline — and his overall fitness continues to trend upward as we approach the international season. Next stop for Tristen is World Cup 1 – Cairo, Egypt (April). Congratulations Tristen!
