Battle it out with your friends with both Sprint and Olympic distances offered. Come race in the beautiful blue water at Bear Lake, and ride along the east shores with spectacular views. Portions of the run will go right through the campground where many participants and their families will be staying, making it a great place to support your favorite racer!

Swim Course
Sprint: The Sprint distance swim will be single loop of 750 meters with a beach start. Water temperatures will be in the mid-upper 60’s so again, wetsuits are recommended. Olympic: The Olympic swim will be a beach start and 1500 meters in length. This crystal clear lake is a beautiful venue to compete. Water temperatures are expected to be in the mid to upper 60’s so wetsuits are recommended.

Bike Course
Sprint: Racers will proceed through the transition area through the appropriate entrance and exits and begin the bike course. The bike course is a 12.5 mile out and back along the east shore of the lake on same route as the Olympic course but with an earlier turn around. This course is very flat and will be well marked and populated with volunteers to direct the racers appropriately. Olympic: Same course as sprint, but 24.85 miles total.

Run Course
Sprint: Racers will complete a full 3.1 mile loop route, on paved and packed surfaces and will be VERY spectator friendly as portions of the course pass through the Rendezvous Beach campground. The run course is VERY flat and will give all racers the opportunity for personal best times! Olympic: Two loops of the sprint run course.
