10th Annual Lakewood Valley Triathlon
Jun 9th, 2012
This year will mark the 10th anniversary of the YMCA’s Lakewood Valley Triathlon. With over 300 participants, volunteers and spectators in 2011, the race atmosphere was exhilarating! The YMCA Lakewood Valley Triathlon has been named "The Midwest’s Most Beautiful Triathlon"! It’s okay if you don’t feel like you can complete the Half mile swim, 15 mile bike and 3 mile run alone. You can enter as a two or three person team and tackle the course with your friends! The course is perfect for the beginner triathlete and still very challenging for a seasoned triathlete. The Race is June 9th and registration starts in March! Contact Chad Hart @ 270-926-9622 for more details! |
