Firefighter Triathalon
About This Activity: Join this fun filled triathlon where Boogie Boards, baggies, Beach Cruisers and beer are all apart of fun. The Firefighter Triathlon is a fun and accessible triathlon for everyone from athletes to kids!
Almost anyone can do it! Our laid back course designers will have you "swimming" for 200 yards. Want to use fins? Be our guest! Want to use a boogie board? Awesome! When you exit the water, you'll hit the Transition Area to hop on your fat-tire bike for 5 miles. That's right, you don't need some skinny-tire, $5,000, aerodynamic speed demon for the Firefighter Triathlon! Any fat-tire bike (beach cruisers recommended) will do! After cruisin' on the bike, you're off on a 2-mile beach run for fun in the sun that begins with the tubular tunnel crawl! Then, you'll meet two more challenges--weave your way through the fire hydrants and extinguishers before the turn around. On your way back you will need to "stop, drop, and roll" under the low crawl nets. Now you are on your way to the finish line, but first you need to do the limbo under the fire ladder at the finish line for the Firefighters Triathlon!
Want to race with your family? We allow racers down to 9 years old AND you can all sign up for the same starting wave! That's right--start waves are not based on age group--you choose! So, you can also race next to friends and coworkers! Heard your serious triathlon friends talk about shaving seconds off their transition times? Well, at the Firefighter Triathlon "transition time" means how long it takes to get you from the finish line into beach bash mode--dancing in the sand to the beat of our live music or chilling with a cold beverage while waiting for your friends to finish.
