Kinetic Multisports

Premier Triathlons on the east coast, offering exceptional quality and value

Hosted at Pleasants Landing Marina on Lake Anna, this race and venue are amazing. The swim takes place in the southeast portion of Lake Anna, about 1/4 mile from where the “hot side” of Lake Anna empties into the cold side, resulting in water temperatures that are 4-6 degree’s warmer than the rest of the lake at this time of year. So, you  can look forward to above average water temperatures in late April. The first open water race of the regular season starts at 9AM, so you can sleep in a little and make it a day at the lake with family and friends.

Views of Lake Anna and the Blue Ridge Mountains give this race a magical feel, it’s a great place to race and spend the weekend outside.

Why Race the Rumpus in Bumpass?

“This is such a great course- particularly the bike route – so scenic and jus the right amount of small rollers and flat.“

“Great race! Kinetic did a great job! Such a friendly and fun atmosphere! Volunteers were all awesome! Thank you.“

“Great course and Kinetic puts on a great race. As an Athena racer, I always appreciate the support for the slower triathletes. Thank you very much for all you do.

Thank you for making this event your first triathlon!
