This historic race is as traditional as they come, the festival features: an Aquathlon and Youth Aquathlon on Friday, Olympic and Sprint distance triathlons and an Olympic distance duathlon and Aquabike on Saturday. 
 
Join us on Friday night for a sanctioned Splash & Dash. This is an excellent way to get a practice swim in the lake before the races on Saturday.  The water in Lake El Reno is usually wetsuit legal, so be sure to bring a wetsuit if you want to. Water temps will be measured before the race and wetsuit legality will be called on race morning.

**This year due to limitations of on-course support the Olympic Distance has a time cut off at 11:00 am (3 hours and 20 minutes) to cross onto Reformatory Road from Sunset Drive on the bike course. **
