Course description: 
TRIATHLON:  

300 yd indoor pool swim - Swim in the Cedar Crest High School indoor pool.  Swimmers will provide their expected finish time during registration and will be seeded from fastest to slowest times.  Swimmers will start approximately every five seconds and will progress up and back 6 lanes until they reach the exit stairs.  They will then head to the bike transition area which is approximately 100 yards from the pool exit.

13 mile Bike - The scenic bike course takes riders through the rolling farmlands of South Lebanon Township passing by Amish Farms and wide open views of the area before returning to Cedar Crest High School.

5k Run - The run leaves Cedar Crest and crosses the Lebanon VA Medical Center property into South Hills Park.  The gravel/paved paths are ideal for all runners as the course is completely off of any public roads.  Two water stations will be set up in South Hills at the  1 mile and 2 mile mark of the course. Runners return to Cedar Crest High School and finish where they started.
