I TRI, THEREFORE I AM! ELEVEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

Join us on Saturday, July 25, 2026 for the Lake Country Triathlon, one of the Midwest premiere endurance challenges. Located in the heart of beautiful Lake Country, Wisconsin. The Lake Country Triathlon offers an amazing race experience that begins with a swim in the clear waters of Lac La Belle, an incredible scenic ride through the rural glacial landscape of SE Wisconsin, and a run through the charming community of Oconomowoc.

This year is our 11th year since re-establishing the triathlon in 2015. Over the past 11 years, we've seen athletes from nearly every state, Canada, and even Europe. We are the perfect setting for the first time triathlete and provide challenging competition for the world's best elite triathletes. We're hoping this year will be our largest and best Lake Country Tri yet and we hope you'll join us in July!

The C26 Wisconsin Triathlon Camp is open to all triathletes — not just C26 team members — who want to gain an edge on one of the most iconic race venues in the sport. Held on the Ironman Wisconsin and 70.3 Wisconsin courses, this camp is led by C26 Triathlon Coaches Robbie Bruce and Mike Tarrolly, who have guided hundreds of athletes to successful finishes, PRs, podiums, top overall placements, and Kona qualifications on this course.

This camp has become a cornerstone of the many C26 Camps offered every year. Offering the perfect blend of hands-on coaching, race-specific preparation, and the supportive community that defines C26. Whether you’re preparing for your first 70.3 or Ironman, chasing a personal best, or working toward a World Championship slot, this camp will help you refine your strategy and build confidence for race day.

You’ll get valuable time on the official swim, bike, and run courses, learn how to pace and fuel effectively, and take the guesswork out of race-day execution. There’s simply no substitute for course recon with experienced coaches who know every turn, climb, and detail of the Wisconsin course making this camp an unforgettable experience of training, learning, and connection with fellow athletes.

We'll share several meals together and will offer plenty of time to hang out with your new friends and campers.

"As someone who finished their first Ironman at Wisconsin, course familiarity was crucial to my preparation. There’s no substitute for getting to train on the course you’re racing and I know the opportunity to train on that Wisconsin course was instrumental in me having the day I had. The experience of riding on that bike course was worth the price of admission alone. I knew where the business end of the course was, where the flatter sections were, where the free speed was, and that helped my plan of attack on race day. If you’re signed up for Ironman Wisconsin, there’s no other race or experience that will get you more prepared to race your best than Wisconsin camp!
