NEW THIS YEAR: the race is going to be held starting and finishing at Harris Riverfront Park; the swim is in the Ohio River. We will have plenty of attention to water safety as always and we except a very safe and a very fast race as 0.4 of the 0.5 mile swim will be with the current.
Also: prices are reduced!
DATE – AUGUST 5th, 2011 - 8am
There are 3 races being held: a triathlon, triathlon relay and a duathlon.
The triathlon has a half-mile swim, 15 mile bike and 5k run. This may be done as a relay of 2 or 3 people. The duathlon has the 5k run instead of the swim.
All races start at 8am and are chip timed.
NEW THIS YEAR !! – Reduced prices from last year ! Ohio River swim! There will be tech t-shirts for all participants. Also we will have a Dean Ornish spaghetti dinner the nite before; custom made medals; and awards from Blenko Glass. There is also an award for the best relay team name (be creative).
BIKE COURSE – The details on this are pending. Tentatively we will bike west as far as Camden Park on Route 60 and then return east to about Marshall University then come back to the park.
AWARDS – The awards are made by Blenko Glass! Age groups are for male and female every 10 years in the triathlon and duathlon as well as Clydesdale and Athena in the triathlon. Relay awards are for first 3 teams in female, male and mixed.
*** Registration for St. Mary’s employees is best done on line this year. Make sure you bring a St. Mary’s ID at packet pickup since this is how you take advantage of the reduced entry fees.
TRAVEL INFORMATION: The race starts and finishes at Harris Riverfront Park in downtown Huntington along the Ohio River. There is plentiful parking and if by some chance we run short at the park there are parking garages across the street.
