    Triathletes throughout Michigan have long considered the Island Lake State Recreation Area, home of the Island Lake Triathlon, an epic training destination, ideal for any athlete preparing for a multisport event. Set within a 4,000-acre park in Livingston County that offers an “up north” experience without leaving southeast Michigan. The terrain is a mixture of open brush land to mature hardwood forest, with some pockets of open meadows mixed in with a paved road of rolling hills weaving throughout. You’ll swim the clear waters of Kent Lake, bike the park’s rolling, tree-lined hills, then run the panoramic final leg towards the lakeside finish line!

    Island Lake Tri features 7 different events:

    Olympic Triathlon — 1500 meter swim, 24-mile bike, 6.2-mile run

    Sprint Triathlon — 750-meter swim (32 lengths in a standard metric pool), 12-mile bike ride, 3.1-mile run

    Mini-Sprint Triathlon — 400-meter swim (16 lengths in a standard metric pool), 12-mile bike ride, 1.5-mile run

    Olympic Aquabike (swim bike done) — 1500 meter swim, 24-mile bike ride

    Sprint Duathlon (run bike run) — 1.5-mile run, 12-mile bike ride, 3.1-mile run

    NOTE: As with nearly all triathlons, participating in the event also requires you to have a USAT membership. USAT stands for United States of America Triathlon, and is the governing body of all multi-sport events, and is also a subsidiary of the United States Olympic Committee. If you already have a USAT membership, great! If not, you will have the opportunity to purchase a 1-day adult membership during registration for $15 (1-day youth is $10). You can also purchase a yearly membership during registration if you plan to participate in several triathlons. For more information regarding USAT memberships, please visit USAT's website directly.

    Refunds

    We will refund the full amount of your registration, minus any registration and USAT fees, if for some reason the event is cancelled for reasons other than weather. If you are registered, but unable to race for medical or other serious reasons, please email 1sttrytriathlon@gmail.com for options. No other refunds will be given!
