This is the 17th year of an off road triathlon being held in Richmond, VA.  XTERRA started the trend and we couldn't see it go away!  The trails around the James River, in downtown Richmond, has hosted the XTERRA East Coast Champtionships events and the Off-Road triathlon Nationals!

This years event, while not part of any series, will be hosted on many of the same trials as in past years.  We will be staging the event at Historic Tredegar, which allows it to be central to the swim, bike and run courses!  

The event will also offer live post race music, beer garden and food (food trucks tbd).
