Run Wild Racing will be teaming up with us to provide chip timing for the event for a more accurate timed finish. This is a great race for first time triathletes, as it is set in a non-competitive environment. We are hoping to bring back the social aspect of triathlons by offering a good old fashion cook-out style buffet and awards ceremony following the race for athletes, families, and friends. The park houses three reservoirs for fishing, walking trails, an 18-hole disc golf course, and playground areas for the kids.

Field is limited to 300 participants!
