The race is centered around the beautiful Biltmore Lake community and features a 750-meter swim in the private lake, a 17.5 mile rolling bike leg in the farmland and rural areas of southern Buncombe County and a 3.1 mile run that takes you around the lake for a finish in front of friends, family and neighborhood residents.

The water temperature has been borderline wet-suit legal (78 degrees or less) the past number of years.  A water temperature will be taken the Monday of race week and published for planning purposes.  The official water temperature will be taken on race morning.

Back by popular demand will be the run course we unveiled last year.  It will be an out-and-back course on mostly paths and trail.  Click on website to see the new run course map.

We welcome everyone to come to Asheville to race and have fun. Whether you are an individual or part of a team, everyone will feel welcome.
