Possum Town Triathlon

The Possum Town Triathlon feature a 600 yard swim, a 17 mile bike ride and 3.3 mile run.

The swim will start in a time trial fashion with each athlete entering the water every 3-5 seconds. Athletes will start in the order of registration. Swim starts and exits at boat ramps. After exiting the water, each athlete will run a short distance to the transition area, serving as the bike and run transition.

The 17 mile bike is mostly flat and very fast. Volunteers and police are on the bike course at each turn. There are orange arrows on the roads at each turn. Each athlete will bike out and back to the same transition area. There are some small speed bumps in the park area at the end of Wilkins Wise Rd, so be careful!! Although we strive to make the course as safe and controlled as possible, the roads are still open to traffic, so be aware and careful.

The 3.3 mile run will be out and back to the finish line. Run is mostly flat, but will be HOT, so hydrate at the aid stations, where there will be water and sports drink. Although we strive to make the course as safe and controlled as possible, the roads are still open to traffic, so be aware and careful.
