Mohican Endurance Festival returns for 2015

Mohican B_02 (1)The second annual Mohican Endurance Festival will be on Sunday, June 28 and feature a Mini, Sprint, Olympic & Half distance triathlon and duathlon. All events will start and finish at the beautiful Pleasant Hill Lake Park in Perrysville, Ohio.

Triathletes will start and finish their swim from the beach at Pleasant Hill Lake while duathletes will be enjoying an opening run on the trails within the park. Following the opening swim or run participants will take on bike courses that feature the challenging terrain surrounding the the Mohican State Forest. Participants will finish their epic event with a challenging trail run featuring breathtaking views of Pleasant Hill Lake Park.

Each finisher will receive a coveted Mohican Endurance Festival Finisher belt buckle with the size determined by the distance conquered. Due to size limitations at Pleasant Hill Lake Park there will be a limit of 500 total participants for this event. We anticipate a very early sell out.

Changes for the 2015 Mohican Endurance Festival

  • Sunday, June 28th race date (website will reflect this today or Friday)
  • Venue moved to Pleasant Hill Lake Park (across the lake)
  • Swim start/finish at Pleasant Hill Lake beach area
  • Transition area is just steps from the swim exit (eliminated 9% grade to TA 😉
  • Awesome new bike courses that will challenge all ability levels (and bring back memories of past races at Pleasant Hill Lake Park)
  • Challenging trail run within the park for all race distances

HFP Racing March News – Spring is coming!!!!

YES – Spring is coming…let’s welcome its return.

EZ-HJ-Half-PipeI know spring is not officially here until March 20th but how awesome was it this weekend to actually see the sun for more than 15 minutes and be able to get outside without your Carhart’s on (I have a pair of camo ones). More importantly, to look at the 10 day forecast and not see another “Winter Storm” brewing…YES Spring IS coming. It’s funny how quickly we think 39 degrees is sooo warm. My boys were riding their half pipe (which was still surrounding by snow on the ground) on Monday with no shirts on (the above photo is from last summer). I too was getting a little over heated doing my daily errands with my “heavy” sweater on…complaining to my wife at my wardrobe selection for the day. Though I dread winters like everyone else and at times wish I lived elsewhere during our winters, Spring is something that year after year is like a promise from God that there are good things to come. Regardless of how down the winter has you, Spring and what Spring brings to all of us is something we get to enjoy every season. Ecclesiastes 3:1 reads “For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.” What a great verse for a triathlete living in the Mideast.
