The swim will be in Kingsley Lake which is one of the state’s pristine waterways (no salt water and no sharks!) and usually very smooth for a fast race. The bike course will be entirely within Camp Blanding with little, if any, traffic, but with a few rolling hills (two loops – one loop for the Sprint distance). The run will be a flat out and back (with little shade) but with plenty of aid stations.
Proceeds from this event go to local Jacksonville Charities. Please go to www.HammerheadOlympicTriathlon.com for details.
