SOMC TRI for your LIFE – IT’S RACE WEEK!

somc-logo

The City of Portsmouth will host the 5th annual “SOMC TRI for Your LIFE” brought to you by Southern Ohio Medical Center, as the organization seeks to build on wellness initiatives and grow the multisport community within the greater Southern Ohio region.

The SOMC Sprint Triathlon will take place on July 31 in Portsmouth, Ohio. The event will feature a youth triathlon at the Life Center Portsmouth. The event will kick-off with a “Wellington Healthy Dog Run” for those kids who want to show off their running skills without doing a triathlon. The youth triathlon will begin in the pool and progress to the bike course alongside the murals of the floodwall that depict the history of the community. The youth run will cap off the event and will occur through the campus green.

The Adult TRI will begin with a brief dip in the Life Center Portsmouth pool and then progress to a 3-lap 9 mile bike course. The run will feature a rolling 5k course through the streets of Portsmouth.

We hope you will mark your calendars and join us for this exciting event!

Online Registration Closes: July 29th, 2016 – 12:00 noon EST
