Start List

9/1/2021 - Due to low volunteer numbers, the Half-Iron bike course will be 2 laps. The half (13.1 mile) and Olympic (10k) runs have changed to run along the lake instead of up the river. The sprint and super sprint courses are unchanged. New maps are posted on the course pages and an email has been sent to all participants registered in the half and olympic courses. Thank you!

8/20/2021 - T-4weeks. We are still a go. As the nature of the pandemic changes, we have the flexibility to adjust thanks to an excellent partnership with the Linn County Parks and Rec department. We have fully approved COVID plans from last year that if needed, we can use this year. Right now, we are planning to proceed as normal. We will adhere to the recommendations from the CDC and OHA for social distancing, mask requirements and capacity limits. We will keep our normal courses unless capacity limits our ability to have adequate volunteers, which we do not anticipate at this time. If you would like to review our COVID plans from 2020, they are archived on our site here. We have ordered shirts, medals, awards, food, the works! We are ready to race, even if we have to make some last minute changes. Our normal roll over policy is in place, so if you are wanting to roll, we are now in the 75% roll window. We will also have a virtual option if you would prefer to race from home this year. We look forward to finally seeing our racers!

7/6/2021 - THE RACE IS ON!!!!! LIVE, IN-PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!

1/26/2021 - The date for the 2021 races are September 17-19. As of now, we are planning the same COVID race as 2020 and that information is available under the COVID Race Info page. If you would like to race whether the race is virtual, hybrid or in-person, feel free to sign up now. Otherwise, please wait. Thanks! At this time, we are not planning to offer the kids race or mixed team relay. If this changes, we will post an update here.

12/7/2020 - The upcoming vaccine sounds promising for the return of events in 2021. We have dates set for some of our events and registration is open, but we will not be able to confirm any events until the respective permitting agencies give us the ok to continue with planning. Tri Fest will either be the second or third weekend of September. We will send email notifications and update our websites as we hear about each event. Thank you for your patience and support!
