"We had more people come to us and just tell us what a great time they had," he said. "It was far more than usual. A lot of times it’s comparing it to different races, but this time there was a level of sincerity and a true appreciation of the day and how it all came together … It was literally perfect triathlon weather."

Race Description

SWIM ROUTE - The swim starts at the east end of the main beach area. Swimmers will proceed clockwise along a 750 m arrowhead shaped course. The Olympic distance athletes complete a two-lap route while the Sprint distance athletes complete one lap.

BIKE ROUTE - A short cycle along Columbine Street takes athletes to the No. 10 Highway where a left-hand turn, marshalled by volunteers and the local RCMP, directs athletes north on an out and back course. Considered one of the most scenic rides on the prairies, the cycling course cuts through the RMNP’s boreal forest.

RUN ROUTE - - The run, heads out following the bike course for the first 400m then turns for the first climb into the cottages down Ta-wa-Pit then winds its way to the trails leading to down to the lakeshore path, providing a vast view of Clear Lake and its north shore. The Sprint distance runners make the turnaround at Deep Bay and head back to the finish line. Olympic distance runners continue along the closed road for another 2 km to the golf course road.

Run - Duathlon 2.5Km
Runners will exit the transition zone and head up Columbine and left on Ta-wa-pit for the first hill climb. For the next 2 km runners will pass by the seasonal residence cottagers cheering, keeping the focus off the hard bike and inspiring them on.
Please see the Duathlon Run Course map for the two run routes.
The Sprint runners make the turnaround at Deep Bay and head back to the finish line via Wasagaming Drive to the Lakeshore path. Olympic runners continue along the closed road for another 2 km towards the golf course before their turnaround. Shortly after the sprint turnaround runners head down to the Lakeshore path and are met by the view of the lake and some welcome shade to keep the engine cool.
With 1 km to go the trail climbs up and a vast view of Clear Lake and the sounds of the transition zone can be heard enticing them to speed up for the last push to the line. As the runners approach the end of this lakeshore path, they run into the finishing shoot inside the transition zone to the finish line where all the fun began a short time ago.
