Athlete Guide (2021 for reference only)

Start with a 750m swim in the crystal clear waters of Lake George. Then take a moderate hilly 12 mile bike ride followed by a 5K run on the scenery rich courses hugging the shore lines of the lake. The Olympic participants will complete 2 loops of each course.  Paratriathletes are welcomed!

Participants in the Aqua Bike competition will complete the event after the bike. Finishers can make their way to the Finish Line for their race medals.  There are no relay team entries for the AquaBike.

Swim Course: The swim is a 750m course in the clean, clear waters of Lake George.  The swim is a counter-clockwise triangular course.  The Olympic triathletes will exit the water and return to do the same loop.

Bike Course: Bike a beautiful loop course measuring 12 miles.  A fast, fun, rolling course. Left out of transition onto Black Point Road, bear right onto The Portage, left onto Alexandria Avenue, left onto Baldwin Road, course turnaround and back up Baldwin Road, right hand turn onto Alexandria Avenue, right onto Black Point Road, right into Transition at the park or a turnaround loop on Black Point Road to complete lap 2 for the Olympic race.

Run Course: The 5K run course takes place completely in a quiet neighborhood. From Transition, follow the signs along the beach area and out to Tiroga Beach Road with a left hand turn up the hill staying right at the Y, complete the loop turn right onto Black Point Road down to the turnaround and head back to the park.  Finish Line will be next to the beach area.  Olympic athletes will follow the signs to complete loop 2 of the course.
