_ The 2022 Deep South Triathlon:- CANCELLED

From The Race Registration Website:

"It is with heavy hearts, but fond memories that we announce the end of Deep South Triathlon. It has been a fun ride, but all things come to an end, and given recent events including an overall reduction in triathlon participation we feel we can no longer deliver on the goal of delivering a high-quality event for our athletes. Due to this belief and the knowledge that we have the responsibility to be good stewards with your trust in producing a high-quality event, we knew this was the correct decision. It is not the one we wanted or welcomed, but after much reflection and consideration one that we are at peace with."

One of the South’s premier independent triathlons and Mississippi’s original long course race, The Deep South Triathlon returns to Lakeshore Park in Brandon, MS for its 8th year on Sunday, October 9th 2022.  Deep South Tri is known for its athlete-first approach, fantastic volunteer support and its creative and abundant participant SWAG. 
The Deep South Triathlon is an independent race that puts the athlete first with each decision that is made. A race truly designed by triathletes and made with the wants and needs of triathletes in mind.  We invite you to take a 1.2 mile swim in the serene 33,000 acre Ross Barnett Reservoir, a 56 mile bike ride amid the rolling hills along the rural Mississippi countryside and a 13.1 mile run while on the gently sloping paved and well supported multipurpose trail. 

Whether you are racing as an individual or as part of a relay team, an experienced racer looking for that new PR, or a newbie looking to get that spectacular finisher medal, Deep South is the race for you.
