Then finish off on the 3 mile run giving a view from each angle of the lake.This race can be done as an individual or as relay team of 3. And new to the race day events is a 3 mile run that will start just after the triathlon and follow the same course for the run as the triathlon does!

(SLIGHTLY) NEW COURSE FOR 2026!

Tour of High Bridge 2026 Course

Building on last year's course, thanks to some newly paved roads that weren't usable last year, we've added three turns and about 50 meters of finishing straight which eliminates last year's high-speed final turn. This should make the descent and finish more technical, but safer, and, in our opinion, a lot more fun!.

START TIMES: Racing begins at 12:00 pm. All races to follow.

*Estimated start times: Novice Men – 12:00pm II Master 40+ – 12:30 pm II Cat ¾ -- 1:15 pm II Junior (9-18) – 2:00 pm II Women/Non-Binary (All Categories) -- 2:30 pm II Citizens/Family Fun Ride – 3:10 pm II The High Bridge Mile (Running) – 3:30 II Men Pro 1/2/3 – 4:00
