Swim Course Description– All athletes will start on the Pier, located at the Yacht Club and will “dive-in” to start the race. Athlete waves will be limited to 75 per wave. Athletes will complete a rectangular shaped swim course with buoys on their left. Athletes will exit at the boat ramps located at the Yacht Club.
Transition – Transition will be located on the paved parking lot located at the Yacht Club.
Bike Course Description – (see map below) Athletes can expect a rolling hills course on sparsely populated roads throughout Shawnee County. All turns and hazards will be well marked throughout the course. No Aid Station will be present so athletes will need to carry enough to make it through their respective courses. The Long Course and Short Course are both one-loop courses.
Transition – Athletes will return to the Yacht Club Transition area.
Run Course - (see map below) Long Course athletes can expect a flat course with the occasional mild incline. The entire run course is on a closed running trail with lake views. Each turn will be well marked and there will be two aid stations provided with an assortment of nutritional products. Short Course athletes and duathletes will be running on an out-and-back course. Athletes will run half of the 3.1 miles and then turn back around at the turnaround point and run the other half back to where they began.
Finish Line- Athletes will finish close to Transition on the running trail. In true TINMAN spirit, all athletes will finish on a Yellow Brick Road Finish carpet!
