2010 Spring Sprint Triathlon:

  • With an indoor finish, this is one of the best spectator races around!  What better place to kick off the 2010 Triathlon season than a pre-season Tri at 2 world class venues!! 
  • The US Trisports Spring Sprint Tri offers a perfect start to your racing season.  With a 'swim-first' pool swim in the Olympic pool at Kearns Oquirrh Park Fitness Center (KOPFC), a great bike course and run course with a finish on the indoor track of the Utah Olympic Oval.
  • Course Information:

    Swim (400 Meters)

    The swim course will take place in the 8-lane 50 meter Olympic pool at the Kearns Oquirrh Park Fitness Center directly adjacent to the Olympic Oval.  Unlike most pool-swim triathlons, racers start off swimming with athletes entering the water at timed intervals to keep pool crowding at a minimum.  Swimmers will start at one end and zig-zag to complete the 400 meter swim.

    Bike Course (20 Kilometers)

    Athletes will exit the transition area on Morning Breeze Dr. turning left immediately onto Highwood Dr and then right onto Sara Jane.  At the intersection of Sara Jane and 5400 S, bikers will cross to the north side of 5400 heading west. (Police will control this cross-over point to ensure bikers can safely proceed.)  Athletes will head west toward the 111 Bacchus Highway.  The 5600W / 5400S intersection will have Police stationed on the north / south bound lanes to control traffic and let bikers proceed safely.)  Upon reaching Highway 111, bikers will merge into the right lane heading north.  (UDOT will be closing the right lane between 5400 S and 4100 S for the race.) Bikers will exit at 4100 S and head east until reaching 6400 W where they will turn south and cross over to the south side of 5400S.  (Police will be controlling this intersection to give bikers the right-of-way crossing.) Heading east, bikers will turn right back onto Sara Jane and return to the transition area.

    Run (5 kilometers)

    The run begins at the transition area and will wind through the park to the west of the Utah Olympic Oval.  The run course will wind through the adjoining neighborhoods and will reenter the park west of the Utah Olympic Oval where athletes will run into the Olympic Oval and complete the final 400 meters on the indoor track and cross the finish line.

    Directions:

    From Salt Lake: Take I-15 South to exit 300 and merge onto 5300 South heading west.  Follow 5300 South as it turns into 5400 South.  Turn left on 4800 W (Cougar LN) and follow until entering the Oquiirh Park Fitness Center on your right.

    From Utah Valley: Take I-15 North to Bangerter Highway.  Merge left onto Bangerter and follow northbound until reaching 6200 South.  Turn left (westbound) on 6200 South and follow until reaching 4800 W.  Turn north on 4800 W (Cougar Ln) and follow until reaching the south KOPFC parking lot.  There is no parking in the north KOPFC lot.
