naughty or nice indoor triathlon
Coffman Y will be hosting its first indoor triathlon which consist of three events: swimming, cycling and running. The swim will be held in our indoor pool, the cycling takes place on our spin bikes and the run will take place on our treadmills. The participants will be judged by the distance traveled in each event in a set amount of time. Transition times between each event will not be factored into overall scoring.
Indoor triathlons are a way to compete during the winter, as well as a way to be introduced to the sport without facing an open water swim. They also do not require an investment in a bike, which can be expensive since we will supply the indoor spin bikes. Finally, they also allow participants that may not be able to complete a set distance but could “race” for a set period of time to compete. This allows us to be able to appeal not just to the competitive athlete but to the average person who just enjoys to race for fun!
The format will be a 20 minute swim, 20 minute bike and 20 minute run with waves going every 23 minutes. There will be a 3 minute transition time that will not be included in overall scoring. Bikes will be located on pool deck for convenience and treadmills will be roped off in the fitness center. Max number of participants is 48. NO RACE DAY REGISTRATION.
There will be a men’s and women’s division and the top three finishers in each division will receive prizes valued between $100 for 1st place, $75 for 2nd place and $50 3rd place.
Awards will be given based on distance achieved within the allotted time. Every participant will receive a high quality sport t-shirt.
