Pedal your way through 16 miles of scenic beauty, conquering rolling hills that will test your cycling prowess.

Lace up your running shoes for a 3-mile journey on a relatively flat course. This run will challenge and invigorate you to cross that finish line with style.
The thrill doesn't end at the finish line – cash awards await the Top Overall Male and Female champions! Not to mention, age group awards for the top 3 finishers in each category and special recognition for the top 3 relay finishers.
Please estimate your swim time as accurately as possible, as no changes will be made after you submit your registration. Proceeds from the TRI benefit the Everyone Belongs Campaign which provides fitness and wellness opportunities for those who cannot otherwise afford them. Race will be held rain or shine, but the Race Director will determine if weather is severe on race day for delays or cancellation. There will be NO race day registrations. You MUST pre-register.
