We’re back!  Tri To Finish is excited to once again host a rugged off road Sprint triathlon/duathlon in the centrally located Stony Creek Metropark.

Don't bother shining your bike as this race could just leave it dirty. A great course will include a two-loop bike route on the outer perimeter of the trail system. Run just outside the park with an out and back course. Expect a few challenging climbs on the run, but nothing you can’t handle! Tri To Finish is committed to making this a memorable event for the participants and spectators alike; every finisher from first to last will enjoy an exciting finish line.
