Description
The Try Tri triathlons are back in 2013 and better than ever! This is the premier event to kick off your tri season, or to get your feet wet as a beginner. With the super sprint and long sprint this races suits beginners to pros, and as an added bonus to include the whole family we have added not one but TWO kids distances for children 5-16! Not only is this race full of options, but the location is perfection! Swim in SIUE's beautiful pool located right in the recreation center. Bike out on county roads with dedicated bike routes and state police officers providing you with the most security possible in metro area race. In fact I think this race is even safer then many of our rural races. Finally you will run on the bike paths throughout campus which are closed to traffic. Don't miss out on the race that will kick off EVERYONE's season, and still be the race they are talking about at the seasons end!Bring the fam, bring your friends fam, and come have a great day of racing at the 2013 Try Tri!
