_ The 2021 Cooperstown Triathlon:- CANCELLED

From The Race Registration Website: "We have received emails from New York State Parks and Recreation and confirmed with phone calls to the management of Glimmerglass State Park in Cooperstown that the State has already made the decision to deny any permits for events within their parks in 2021 due to the corona virus. "

We knew this was coming but it does not make it any easier to announce that the 2020 Cooperstown Triathlon will be cancelled.

Please know that we place our participants, our volunteers, spectators and the community members health and well being above all else. 

The great news is that we are confirmed with Glimmerglass State Park to hold the event on June 12, 2021.  Your registration has automatically been deferred to that date. You don't need to do anything.

However; we will be offering all of you the option to transfer for no extra fee* to any of the following events that we are able to hold this calendar year:

Ticonderoga Triathlon Festival - June 20 (we remain hopeful but extremely doubtful that this will happen)

Stissing Triathlon - June 28 (again, doubtful but there is always hope)

Litchfield Hills Triathlon - July 11 (same as above)

Delta Lake Triathlon - July 18 (much more hopeful that we will be able to race by then)

Findley Lake Triathlon - August 1

*CassadagaMan - September 5th (with a discounted fee based upon your current registration)

KBR Triathlon - September 19

Amish Country Running Festival - September 26

We will continue to send you emails and make announcements on Facebook as to the status of future events.  You will be given instructions at that time if you decide to transfer to another race.  Watch our website for more info on the above listed events at www.CoachMarkWilson.com

Please know that we are extremely disappointed to not be racing with you this year in Cooperstown.  Stay safe, stay well and continue to train.  

If you have any questions at all please feel free to reach out to either Coach Mark at [email protected] or 914-466-9214 or to Tonia at [email protected] or 716-353-1288.
