Wild Goose Training Camp

The Pass it Along Triathlon at Lake Mohawk Country Club is a one day event, offering USAT Sanctioned Sprint Courses and Olympic Courses.

This event is great for both first timers and intermediate/advanced athletes. Participants can register as an individual entry, or as a relay team. The event takes place at the scenic, privately owned lake community of Lake Mohawk Country Club, located in Sparta Township, New Jersey. Parking for the event is conveniently located directly across from the transition area and swim start at the Historic Lake Mohawk Country Club Clubhouse. Circa 1929, this castle-like structure is listed on the national and state registers of historic places due to its uniqueness of architecture. The transition area is a grassy field, located east of the clubhouse.

The swim portion of the event occurs in the calm waters of the lake, which is patrolled by over 30 lifeguards in boats, kayaks and/or paddle boards. The bike course consists of several hills, and directs participants through the residential countryside of Sparta, Byram and Andover Townships. The run, mostly flat, is along the eastern shore of Lake Mohawk. Participants on the bike and run courses will travel through the lake community's village center, Lake Mohawk White Deer Plaza. The finish line for the event is also located at the Lake Mohawk White Deer Plaza. The Plaza is a convenient and great place for spectators to view the athletes while on the bike and run courses, and crossing the finish line.

Age Requirements: The minimum years of age for participation in the Sprint Course is 14 (if turning 15 by December 31). All participants under the age of 18 years must mail a signed USAT waiver to Pass It Along, 75 State Route 15, Unit 62, Lafayette, NJ 07848 with additional signature of consent of parent/legal guardian.

You will run four times on a four mile loop of rugged technical trails after a mile out and back on a closed road to separate the field of runners for safety. You will complete three counterclockwise loops followed by a final loop clockwise. You must check in at the beginning/end of each loop to have your time card punched.

Founded in 2017. This is NOT your average trail race. This trail is meant to test your strength and endurance. Seventeen miles with over 5000 ft. of elevation change, if you're not extremely careful there are many places where you can fall to your death or serious injury. No awards or medals. Race at your own risk.

Course Description

Mile 0-1: from the start/finish out and back on road

Mile 1-2: heading south along a semi technical rock strewn dirt trail which leads to a steep long descent on rocky uneven jagged stairs and switchbacks. Once you reach the bottom you'll head north on smooth dirt trail along the river with beautiful views

Mile 2-3: a boulder filled rock scramble where you'll need to use your hands to navigate at certain points ends with a singletrack dirt trail with short yet steep ascents and descents along the river

Mile 3-4: singletrack dirt path takes you directly back into another rock scramble, however this portion is much more runnable, ending directly on the shore of the river

Mile 4-5: as you continue along the rocky shore trail you'll encounter the beautiful waterfall signaling your time to ascend the cliff using various switchbacks and staircases. Once you reach the top it's a short trip south through wide cross country skiing trails back to the checkpoint/aid station at the start/finish area

Miles 5-9 & 9-13 repeat miles 1-5. Last loop miles 13-17 you'll reverse your path.
