Sprint Course

SWIM

The race starts at the Lakeside Park boat ramp on Cottage Grove Lake. Swimmers will be sent off in waves with a standing in water start and swim a clockwise loop. Keep all buoys on your right until arriving back at the dock and making the left turn to exit up the ramp and into the transition area.
On your marks... get set....
Beginners will love the ease of this ride,

RUN

3.1 miles
This out and back 3.1 mile route takes you along the beautiful lake shore. The road is a combination of pavement and compact gravel. Plenty of trees give cover to the summer sun as you make your way though the course.

When you exit transition, there is a 6ft elevation gain up the side of the road to get onto the run course. Once you turn left on to the course, your next turn is the turn around. That's it. It is a straight, flat, out and back along the lake.
Beautiful views and flat run!
