Tinman Triathlon

Mitchell Pool - June 8

This event, sponsored by the Coho Swim Club, is designed for both the experienced triathlete and the beginning participant. Due to construction, this event will be held at Mitchell Pool and the surrounding neighborhood. The swim portion will be conducted as pre-seeded waves based on participants’ estimated swim time. After the 300-meter swim is a 6-mile bike, followed by a 3-mile run.

Triathlon Brick Work

Mitchell Park - beginning June 13

This is a 90 minute workout stacking a 30 minute interval run on top of a 60 minute swim. As a great foundation for an effective multisport training program, this workout is designed for triathletes, but anyone searching for a solid cross-training opportunity is welcome to participate. Participants should have basic swimming skills.
