The Course

Swim
The swim course begins with an in-water start just off the beach at the CNIB Lake Joseph Centre. It then follows a right-handed triangular loop returning to the beach after 750m of swimming in the clear waters of Lake Joseph.

Bike
After being cheered through the swim-bike transition by friends and family, the cycling course begins. The course exits the camp and travels south along old Hwy 69 on wide paved shoulders. Upon reaching the town of Mactier, the course completes a quick turn-around circuit before heading back north to complete the 20km route on gently rolling terrain.

Run
Once back at the camp and through the bike-run transition, the course heads back out to old Hwy 69 to now travel north toward Gordon Bay Marine. The 5km run is primarily flat and uses the northbound shoulder for both directions of the course. Drawn by the energy of the crowd, the final stretch of the race brings you back into the camp grounds and to the Finish Line in sight of Lake Joseph.
