The MarshMan Sprint Triathlon is an amazing race in a beautiful location. Staged out of Marsh Creek State Park, this race is located just west of Philadelphia, PA and minutes from the Turnpike. The swim takes place in 500 acre Marsh Creek Lake and features a single loop, rectangular shaped swim course. The bike course is a beautiful, well paved, single loop 20k course that takes athletes through a mix of technical sections and long straightaways alongside trout streams and forests. The new 5k run course is entirely within the park and has beautiful lake views and a good uphill at mile 2. There is a ton to see and do outside of the race with kayak rentals, great restaurants and rural, back country roads. Click HERE to learn more and plan your trip.

Transition Area Rules: Please note that bicycles will not be released from the transition area until the bike cut off time (2 hours from the last wave) or the last cyclist enters transition. The parking lots exit directly on to the bike course and we need to make sure the course is clear prior to allowing 500 cars on the road. Thank you for your understanding and patience in this matter.
