In partnership with the acclaimed SOS Triathlon®, held annually for 35 years along New York’s Shawangunk Mountain Range, New England Endurance Events is pleased to present SOS Cape Cod. For the first time ever, an athletic competition has been allowed to enter the fragile and scenic lands of the Cape Cod National Seashore. A slightly shorter course than the SOS New York event, triathletes will bike, then run and swim on a 38-mile point-to-point course leading to a finish in the quintessential coastal village of Wellfleet. Ten of the top overall/age group winners will be eligible to compete at the SOS Championships in New Paltz, New York on September 8.
