A one loop swim, two loop bike course and 3 loop run make for an extremely exciting and spectator friendly day! The water temperature should be in the mid 60’s, guaranteeing a wetsuit legal swim.

Swim Course: This 1.2 Mile Swim features a sandy beach start and rectangular shaped course with 2 turns and sighting buoys located every 75 meters. Lake Anna is a beautiful lake and we expect water temperatures to be in the mid 60’s. A temperature reading will be taken and posted the Thursday prior to the event. The swim is spectator friendly as the beach is wide open and the surrounding hillside affords elevated viewing of the entire swim course. Once athletes finish the swim they’ll have a short run to TA and another quick run to the mount line.

Bike Course: The Long Course bike is a 2 loop, 56 mile, rolling course on great pavement with 1750′ of climbing over the route. Consisting of mostly right turns the course has an energizing mix of terrain and terrific views as you ride alongside rural farm country and pine plantations. This is a beautiful course and a lot of fun to ride. While this is not an easy bike course, it has long, buttery smooth sections of pavement that are perfect for your aero position. There are 3 aid stations on the course located at miles 20, 35 and 45 serving water and Gatorade sport top bottles. As always, technical and sag support will be available during the event. Please note there is a 5 hour cumulative cut-off for the swim and bike portion of this event. 

Run Course: The Long Course run features 3 loops along the wooded roads of Lake Anna State Park for a total of 13.1 miles and 800′ of elevation gain.  There is an enthusiastic cheering section on the hill coming out of transition area, starting the 2nd, and 3rd loops.  There are also enthusiastic aid stations located every mile on the course serving water, Gatorade, ice and other goodies to keep you going.  There is some park traffic on the first mile, but you’ll see more wildlife than cars as you run down the various cabin and campground loops in the park.  With banked seating and a party going on, your friends and family can cheer you on as you start additional loops of the run course then eventually welcome you home as you finish the race next to the beach.

Swim Course: The 1.5K swim begins on the beach at Lake Anna State Park. The rectangular shaped course will have 2 right turns and sighting buoys will be located approximately every 75 meters. We expect the water at this time of year and at this section of the lake to be in the low 70’s. A temperature reading will be taken and posted the Thursday prior to the event. The water temperature at this location has averaged in the low 70’s which is pretty nice for October!

Bike Course: The Olympic bike course is a lollypop course that is 24.6 miles long. With a left turn out of the park athletes have great pavement and traverse much of the first part of the Kinetic Half bike course. The pavement is great and the terrain is varied as you traverse rural country roads. The course has a great elevation mix and will soon become one of the most popular in the series.

Run Course: The Olympic run course is the same as the Sprint course, it’s just 2 loops. There is a large hill at the beginning coming out of T2 but it levels off for the middle section of the course. There is a large down hill towards the finish line where athletes will start their second lap of the run. On your second pass athletes will veer 15 degrees into the finishing chute. The course is heavily shaded, well supported and entirely run on asphalt.

You will be tired coming out of T2 but it levels off for the middle section of the course as you run along the forested cabin and campground loops. There is a fast downhill section towards the finish line where athletes will finish by veering 15 degrees off the beach sidewalk into the finishing chute. This is a scenic and seriously fast run course once you get past the first 1/4 mile of up! There is some park traffic on the first mile, but you’ll see more wildlife than cars as you run down the various cabin and campground loops in the park.
