SPRINT I AQUABIKE I STAND-UP PADDLE-BOARD
Sprint Triathlon
The sprint distance will be a .5 mile swim, 12.4 mile out and back bike ride through the rolling country-side, and a 3.5 mile run that's 50% on the road and 50% on the Willow Creek Trail!
Aquabike
Will feature the same .5 mile swim and 12.4 mile bike as the sprint distance event. Once athletes finish the bike they'll transition to their running shoes for a 100m run through the finish chute where their race will officially end!
​
Stand-Up Paddle-Board Option
​
This exciting option is back for a 2nd year! Instead of a swim, you'll simply start the race and complete the .5 mile swim course on your stand-up paddle-board. Please note: you must supply your own stand-up paddle-board.

PACKET PICK-UP INFORMATION
​
1) Saturday (7/25): 1:00pm-3:00pm (Q&A with the race director at 2:00pm)
Steamboat Lake Marina - you do not need a park pass to enter and pick-up your packet
​
Please note: If you did not sign-up for the $10 race day pick-up and can not make the pre-race packet pick-ups just send an e-mail to Lance@withoutlimits.com letting us know you'd like to pick-up race morning, bring $10 cash with you, and plan on arriving 10min earlier than normal.
Race Day Pick-Up: When you register you'll be given the option to pick-up your packet race morning for $10. Why the fee? While we don't want to charge any extra its serves more as a deterrent so we don't have a 300 person line race morning. This packet pickup "convenience" fee is used to cover the cost in staffing the additional trained personnel needed to facilitate this extra special service. Adding it to online reg also allows us to know what kind of numbers to expect race morning. We love having athletes from Colorado Springs, the mountains, and Wyoming, and hate making you take a special trip on Saturday. The gas alone is probably $10
USA TRIATHLON ANNUAL MEMBERS: If you're an annual USA TRIATHLON Member you must bring your valid USA Triathlon card and a valid photo ID with you to packet pick up!
NON-USA TRIATHLON MEMBERS: If you're not a USA TRIATHLON Member then you already purchased the 1-day ($14) license when you registered and you're all set. If you did a print and mail registration and forgot the $14 we have it in our records and you'll be able to pay the fee at packet pick-up. Please remember a valid photo ID. As per USA TRIATHLON rules you must pick up your packet as we're not allowed to release it to friends, husbands, wives, or relatives.
