Triathlon : Swim 750 meters, Bike 12.4 miles, Run 3.1 miles

2011 Crescent Moon Triathlon:

The Crescent Moon Triathlon started in 2007 as an offshoot of the Harvest Moon Long Course Triathlon.

The Crescent Moon took on a life of its own, however, as we Sold-Out in late June, then turned away over 300 interested participants who were begging to get in.

In 2008, we moved to a larger venue and have given the Crescent Moon its own weekend.

Course Information:

750mSwim/20KBike/5KRun:

TRANSITION: You asked, we listened! We have redesigned our transition for 2010 so there will be less running with your bike! Our new set-up is Sweeeeeet!

SWIM: Swimmers will complete a 750 Meter triangle-shaped swim in Cherry Creek Reservoir, starting and finishing on the sandy beach adjacent to the West Shade Picnic Area. The start will be in waves which will be posted at packet pick-up locations and on our website 1 week before the event. Water temperature in the reservoir in September is typically in the sixties, so wetsuits are encouraged.

BIKE: The 11.5 mile bike course is predominantly flat, with one hill located at approximatey 5 miles into the ride. Drafting is not allowed on the bike course, and motorcycle marshals will be enforcing this rule.

RUN: The 5K (3.1 mile) run course is a loop course on a mix of road, bike path, and well-maintained non-technical dirt running trail.

Aid Stations There will be two aid stations on the run course, serving ice Cold Water and HEED energy drink. One will be located shortly after exiting transition, and the other will be located at the half-way point in the run.

Relay Teams will receive 1 timing chip which must be transferred from swimmer to biker to runner. This exchange will take place at a designated are within the transition near the bike-in/bike-out location. Timing chips are attached to a soft, comfortable Velcro strap which must be worn on the ankle.

Directions:

From I-25 Take Exit 199 (Belleview) and turn East on Belleview.

Drive approximately 1.5 miles to Dayton (there is a stoplight).

Turn left on Dayton and drive approximately 0.5 miles to Cherry Creek State Park.

All athletes will park and pickup their packets at Cherry Creek High School just outside park entrance on left.

Other Info:

All participants will receive a heavyweight race sweatshirt, tremendous goody gab, catered BBQ lunch, raffle prizes, custom awards for division winners and $1,200 in prize money for the top performers.

This race has sold out since 2007.
