This Sprint distance triathlon features a 1/4 mile swim in the Gulf of Mexico, followed by a 10 mile closed course bike through Fort De Soto Park, then finishes with a beautiful 3.1 mile run down the park’s hard packed beach sand with gorgeous scenery and returning on the paved path.  The Duathlon starts with a 1 mile paved run around the north parking lot and finishes with the same bike and run as the Sprint Triathlon.  The International Triathlon starts with a .5 mile Gulf swim, completes two 10-mile loops of the bike course, and then finishes with two 3.1-mile loops of the run course.  Come and see why Fort De Soto Park is consistently voted one of the top beaches in the world!

Trip Advisor, the world’s largest online travel community, has named Fort De Soto Park America’s Top Beach for the second consecutive year. Citing a “spectacular combination of soft white sand, calm, clear water and a laid-back atmosphere,” the popular online travel network put the park’s North Beach at the top of its annual best-of list, based on Trip Advisor’s Popularity Index.

Awards

All finishers will receive a custom designed finisher’s medal declaring you as a triathlon or duathlon finisher! Collect them all! We feel that finishing a triathlon or duathlon or any distance is a great accomplishment that you should be proud of. This is just another reason to race with MultiRace!

In addition, awards are given to the top 3 finishers in all categories. Those receiving overall and master awards are removed from their age groups, bumping everyone else up in the age group standings. There is no double dipping.  If you qualify for overall, you cannot get another award for masters overall or your age group. Pro-Elite participants only qualify for overall awards.
