2012 Shark Attack Triathlon:
- (Relay Options also Available) The Desert Sharks Triathlon Club is proud to present the 9th Annual Shark Attack Triathlon!
- This year's Shark Attack will feature the same fun and family-friendly atmosphere as years past.
- The Shark Attack will focus on the thrill of completing a triathlon, whether it is your first or fiftieth!
- The race is designed for the novice triathlete, but offers a great early season warm-up, brick session, or friendly competition between groups of experienced triathletes.
- Electronic timing will be provided. Participants will be ranked by finishing time, and the top finishers in each age-group will be recognized at a post-race ceremony. The Shark Attack is the perfect place to experience the tradition of triathlon!
Course Information:
ADULT RACE:
Swim Course (Pool 300 yards): The swim course is a timed start with participants lining up according to estimated swim time for 300 yards. This is a snake style swim with participants swimming 1 length of the 50 yard pool, then under the line into the next lane. This is done 6 times as swimmers snake up the lanes from one side of the pool to the other. Swimmers will be started approximately every 5 seconds. Swimmers must enter the pool feet first. Lifeguards will be placed along the perimeter of the pool. Spectators will be allowed in the pool area; however, they must remain in specified areas. Swimming aids (arm floaties, kickboards, fins, paddles, etc) ARE NOT ALLOWED in the adult race.
Bike Course (11.5 miles total): The bike course is an out-and-back 11.5 mile ride. The "out" is a gradual uphill of approximately 290 feet of climbing, and the "back" is a very quick ride back to T2. The course consists of one technical S-curve on a hill that will be well marked.

Run Course (5K = 3.1 miles): The run course is an out-and-back 5K route. The course takes you to the north side of the pool property to intersect with the Jordan River Trail. The course does consist of a few switchbacks as you head down to the river bottoms over the edge of the bluff. Runners will stay on paths that consist of pavement and bridges. Route will be clearly marked with aid/water stations strategically placed.
