Join TRI TO FINISH in our NEW spring opener triathlon at beautiful Sanford Lake Park in Midland County. This event is special to us as we are based right here in the Great Lakes Bay Region and with a Super Sprint Triathlon event being part of it, we are able to encourage a whole new group of athletes to Tri!
With over a half-mile of lake frontage and 1000 feet of soft, sandy beach on the shores of Sanford Lake, this popular recreation area is a wonderful spot to nurture that golden tan and enjoy the sun. It also makes for a pretty sweet Triathlon venue! And by having this race in June, the swim should be free of weeds and ideal for all those newbies looking to compete in their first triathlon.
This race is for both the seasoned athlete AND anyone looking to “test the triathlon waters”. Olympic, Sprint, Super Sprint and Sprint Duathlon are all on the agenda. Unable to participate in all disciplines? Get a team of 2-3 together and compete in a relay! However you choose to participate, we look forward to seeing you at the Finish line. See you in June!

A one-day membership is $15 for adults – there is no one-day membership available for youth. More information regarding USAT Membership can be found HERE.

TRANSITION
ONLY athletes (and parents for Youth Participants) are allowed in the transition area. Once transition closes, it will remain closed to athletes until the LAST biker has exited transition. The Transition Captain may choose to begin allowing early access to a limited numbers of athletes to retrieve their gear but this will be at his/her discretion. If given access, PLEASE remain respectful of athletes who are still competing and may be entering/exiting transition. Safety is foremost, but security is important too so you must exit transition at the point deemed proper by the Transition Captain and provide proof (i.e., race bib or id) of ownership of bike with number decal affixed.

Refund Policy
We completely understand that plans change and athletes will sometimes be unable to compete in an event they've signed up for. Unfortunately, refunds will not be provided for any event unless the event is cancelled for some reason.
Should an athlete have an injury or other medical issue keeping them from competing in an event they've registered for, then we would be happy to transfer their registration to a similar event up to and including the same event the following season.
Transferring registrations to other athletes is NOT allowed.
Swim – A triangular, single lap course with athletes swimming clockwise.
Bike – Athletes will exit the park and immediately turn left onto Smith St where they will ride a short distance before turning right and heading West on Saginaw Rd to their event-determined turnaround point. They will then get onto the Pere Marquette Rail Trail before heading East back to Smith St and to transition in the Park. This is a FLAT, fast course.
Run – Athletes will exit the park through the main entrance and will turn left onto Smith St where they will head South until crossing Saginaw Rd and turning left onto the Pere Marquette Rail Trail. Athletes will then stay on the rail trail until reaching their event-determined turnaround points and will return to the park along the path from which they came. Flat, fast and scenic with a great view of town!
Directions to Event
From eastbound U.S.10, turn south at the first Sanford exit, which is W. River Rd. From westbound U.S.10, this is the second Sanford exit. Continue south to Irish Rd. and turn left. Follow to the Sanford Lake Park.
