• Description: The Great Island Adventure Tri (GIAT) and the Great Island Swim Tri (GIST) will be taking place on Saturday, June 27 at 8am. The GIAT will consist of a 5k up and back kayak, 25k bike and 5k run. The GIST will consist of a 750m downstream, open-water swim, 25k bike and 5k run.
  
  The kayak course begins at the boat launch and proceeds upstream 1.55 miles before turning around and heading back to the launch/transition area. At the same time, the swimmers will enjoy a completely downstream 750m leg (on the opposite side of the river from the kayakers). Transition area for both races are at the same location. Both races follow the same bike and run courses. New bike course for this year's Great Island Triathlons. We've spread out the two climbs so that racers have plenty of time to recover. 880ft of climbing across the 25k. One cat. 5 climb. The run takes racers across Jay Street bridge down the levee and back again.
