Timing: We encourage everyone to enjoy their experience of a recreational triathlon.

Times will not count for the bike leg because no one is permitted to exceed the speed limit of 15 mph. No participant will be advantaged or disadvantaged by the bike “ride”. There will be designated pathways roped off to direct you to the next leg of the triathlon. Other Event: The Friends of the Trail are also host the Race to Remember on Saturday 21.
