• Description: The race is actually in 3 spots. Packet Pickup/Registration and Finish line is located in front of the police, fire and city building on W. Lake st. The start of the event is behind the buildings at the beach in the marina next to the break wall. The transition area is located downtown Petoskey, about 400m away on Bay st. We have put the entire swim course inside he marina with the protected waters from the breakwall. This means we swim every year regardless of how rough the water is in the bay. Some that have participated in the past have seen the 4 plus foot high waves on the other side of the breakwall while we swam on flat calm water. The bike is one of our favorites, it is hilly to rolling but what goes up must come down and that is fun. Tuck and go baby. If a lot of hills is not to your liking the sprint race is perfect. You can see from the past years bike times the course is not difficult. It is beautiful scenery though and the run course ranks up there as well as one of our favorites. Running along the bay then along the Bear river is exhillerating before a very fast downhill finish that starts about a mile back on the Bear river service road.
