_The 2022 Alleghany Wellness Center Trifecta:
The Alleghany Wellness Center Trifecta is Triathlon intended to encourage all ages and abilities to "try" a triathlon! We want to promote setting and achieving wellness goals and with this in mind have created this triathlon to challenge the bucket list seeker and experienced triathlete alike. Not ready to complete all three legs of the event? No worries, we have a Relay Divison! This event is the perfect weekend adventure, as well! Complete your race and then go and enjoy the beauty of small town mountain life! We have Music on Main on Saturday night and plenty of quaint restaurants and shops to explore. We are minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway, with breathtaking views you will want to slow down and take it all in. Our event is good for your health and good for your soul! Hope to see you on the starting line!
This is a first time event organized by volunteers who want to encourage people in our community and local area to get healthy and complete a triathlon. This is not a sanctioned event. It will be manually timed from start to finish. There will be medals awarded to top finishers.
Food and refreshments will be available to all participants.
