XTERRA Lake Placid Triathlon

August 22, 2010


The 2nd Annual XTERRA Lake Placid Triathlon takes place in the gorgeous Olympic Town of Lake Placid, NY. Lake Placid is located in the heart of the Adirondacks and is about 2 and half hours north of Albany and South of Montreal. Lake Placid was host to the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympic Games and wil once againl provide a great setting for this event.

New for 2010 is the Short Course race option in addition to the Long Course option. Racers in the short course will complete one loop of each part of the race.

We will be having a Great Post Race Feast in the Oval following the XTERRA Tri, so put this race on your calendar and come join us for the XTERRA Experience.

There will also be a Prize purse to be split by the top 5 Men and Women. Purse is $3000.

Only the XTERRA Lake Placid Long Course will be awarded XPS Points. The Short Course is just an ORT race.

If you are part of a Triathlon Team we will be having a Team Tailgate area for all teams to set up a Team Tent in the Olympic Oval.
