2012 Last Try Triathlon - Rend Lake:

Everyone touts their courses, everyone says their course is great,

You would be hard pressed to find a better venue and course for your last event of the year and that folks is the truth.

Whether you are training for that end of the season half or full or just want to get that last PR before putting the bike on the trainer this is the place.

Another beautiful clean, Army Corp. lake surrounded by rolling, fast, country roads.

Course Information:

If you are looking for the perfect end of the season race or just want a fast training race before a half or full later in the fall this is the place.

Swim:

The swim will be an in the water start due to typical cool mornings this time of year.

The water is warmer than the morning air so we will get everyone in before we start each wave.

Bike:

The bike is new paved rolling fast rural roads basically circling the lake.

A 21 mile loop around the lake, long course athletes you have two loops and sprint one loop of the bike course.

Run:

The run course will utilize existing 8 foot black topped running paths that connect the various camping and picnic areas.

This will be an out and back run course simply turning around at your turnaround sign.

This terrain will be rolling the entire way but no real climbs to speak of.

The run course is surrounded by nature and has shade most of the way.
