    T2 & The finish-line are located at Riverside Park. You may also check in your bike Friday evening at T1. We will have security personnel at T1 to look after bicycles.

    The Swim starts at East Canyon Reservoir marina and boat ramp. Swimmers will enjoy an open water swim start and will head northeast in a triangular counter-clockwise manner (750 meter Sprint, 1.5k Olympic), and will exit the water at the boat ramp. (1 loop for sprint, 2 loops for Olympic)

    Water temps in late August range from 64-69 degrees.

    The bike course is fast! Sprint Distance cyclists will head right out of the marina, downhill to Morgan City and T2, While Olympic cyclists will turn right and head East, climb a small steep winding hill, then south toward the East Canyon Resort for 6 miles, then make a U-turn and head back to the Marina. After passing the Marina at mile 12, cyclists will join the sprint distance course and head past the dam, and speed downhill for 12 miles into Morgan City. Both sprint and Olympic distance races will travel along the same route and finish at Riverside Park to T2.

    The Run course for both sprint and Olympic events are out and back courses, running along the beautiful Weber River and local streets. The run is slightly uphill for the first half, and downhill on the second half.
