FIT Family Series @ Caesar Creek FINAL Confirmation

Posted on by

logo_caesarcreek-2014The third stop on the FIT Family Series presented by Go Fast Multisport is at the beautiful Caesar Creek State Park on July 12-13. Triathletes will be treated to swim courses in the beautiful Caesar Creek Lake. Duathletes will start off with a fast out and back run within the park. The bike courses are described as rolling on mostly winding country roads surrounding the park. The final run is an out and back run that features a long section across the old dam levy on gravel roads. [GET REGISTERED]

Online registration closes at Noon on July 10th.

Water Quality Advisory Alert – Just as in 2013, the beach is OPEN but an advisory has been posted for those Children and Elderly as of July 3rd, 2014. This advisory WILL NOT change the July 13 Caesar Creek Triathlon in anyway. However, if the advisory is not lifted the July 12 Kidz Triathlon will be changed to a duathlon. We’ll have any updates on our Facebook page.
