    Race Description

    Kayak-Racers will make a water start in the Pamlico River and paddle 1.5 miles around three buoys and finish back at shore. Racers will then have an approximate 400 yard run on a semi-paved trail to the bike transition area. Shoes are recommended. The race will be split into several heats at 5 minute intervals for men, women, and teams.

    Bike- The 15.6 mile out and back course is on paved, flat country roads. The leg begins within Goose Creek State Park and racers will enjoy the country setting and a view of the Pamlico River as you enter the turn around area at Dinah's Landing. Roads will be open to traffic. 

    Run- The 3 mile run is a beautiful loop run through Gooose Creek State Park. The first 1.6 miles are on well maintained nature trails and the end of the run follows the park's only paved road. Finish in style, where your fans and cold refreshements will be waiting.

    Directions:

    Goose Creek State Park is located in Beaufort County on the north side of the Pamlico River. From I-95, take US 264 east. After driving through Washington, follow US 264 east for 10 miles. Then turn right onto Camp Leach Road and travel 2.3 miles to the park entrance, located on the right.

    Other Info:

    New This Year: There will be a cutoff for official race results with the race time limit of 2 hours and 40 minutes. At 2 hours and 40 minutes the official timed finish line will shut down. A time clock will continue running for all participants that finish after the time cutoff. It is hoped that all participants will finish the race in less than 2 hours and 40 minutes from their kayak start time.

    Split timing will be provided by East Carolina Road Racing.
