• Description: You will begin your race with a 750 m swim in beautiful Lake Couchiching. It is a beach and wave start. You will swim in a clock-wise direction following a rectangular pattern before returning to the transition. All turns will be marked with large orange buoys. The Bike Course would be noted as a little more "technical" and begins with some short hills and turns but once out of town there are some long flat sections where you can build some speed. There are some rollers on the course but nothing terribly difficult. The return on the bike tends to be mostly down-hill so be sure to check your speeds on your approach back to transition. The Run Course is mostly flat and winds through residential neighborhoods. Some good shade in sections and generally a fast course which finishes through beautiful tree lined Terry Fox Circle in Couchiching Park.
