 3k Run
The initial 3k takes place at Rattlesnake Bar Park, the site of the triathlon swim venue. The course will proceed along the lake shore on a mix of paved road, dirt road, single track and double track trail. The course is about half flat and half rolling trails with brief climb or descent.
Take your time and enjoy a good warmup for the next two events. If the winner of the initial 3k fails to finish in the top-10 overall, he will receive the special award of temporary forehead tatoo that says, "Poser". Note: This is a two-transition race - you will need two pairs of shoes!
