The first Multisport Canada event of the season in beautiful Welland, a full weekend featuring a range of events from the Give-it-a-Tri, Sprint Triathlon/Duathlon, and Long Course Triathlon. Get a chance to swim the Welland Canal and then head out onto the flat and fast bike and run course.
Swim Course: Think about swimming in a giant pool! 100m Wide and over 1km Long and that’s what it feels like! There are already existing buoy lines to keep you swimming straight, so you can just keep your head down and SWIM! Small Wave Starts makes for a stress-free start to your day. Water temperatures tend to be in the 20-23C (68F to 74F) range, so wetsuits should be optional for this event.
Bike Course: On Saturday, the Long Course route heads south from Welland predominantly flat and quiet roads. Wind can be a factor on this route as it goes right down to the shores of Lake Erie. This is SHARED ROAD Course, so be sure to follow all safe riding practices. On Sunday, The Sprint and Give-It-A-Tri use the roads right around the WIFC and feature FULLY CLOSED course. The course is Fast and Flat with wide turnarounds at each end. This is also a favourite with spectators as they are always close to the action!
Run Course: this is also by far the most spectator-friendly run course as it stays on the pathways around the WIFC. The Long Course passes by the Grandstands twice each loop and the Sprint and Give-It-A-Tri feature great viewing opportunities around the Lap & Finish area.
