The Cranberry Country Triathlon has been renamed Cranberry Trifest. The new name reflects the addition of two new races to go along with the long running intermediate distance triathlon. Starting on Saturday, August 29, 2009 at 9:00AM, there will be a sprint distance triathlon (0.5 mile swim, 12 mile bike, and a 3.1 mile run) to be followed by a kids duathlon (run-bike-run). The "classic" intermediate distance triathlon (0.8 mile swim/24.9 mile bike/6.2 mile run) will start at 8:00AM on Sunday, August 30, 2009. Male and female athletes that participate in both the sprint and intermediate tris will compete for the title of King and Queen of Cranberry Trifest which offers some great prizes. All three races will be based at the Ted Williams Camp in Lakeville, MA.
