_ 2017 Survival of the Mills Races
Wells Mills County Park will host a “one of a kind” event this fall. Multisport athletes will be challenged to a very unique and technical 7-stage triathlon or 5-stage duathlon covering a total of about 26+ miles.
Triathlon-The Triathlon is a continuous 7-stage (run/bike/run/swim/ run/bike/run) race with 6 transitions. The race includes 4 unique trail runs, 2 bike legs on quite rolling country roads and one lake swim.
Duathlon- The Duathlon is a continuous 5-stage (run/bike/run/bike/run) race with 4 transitions. The duathlon will be the same distances and course as the triathlon minus the swim.
5k Run/Walk- The 5k run/walk will be on the same 3.1 mile course as the final stage of the Tri/Du. The 5k course has beautiful scenic trails and takes you around the wells mills lake. The run also has great single track trails that wind you through tall cedars and over long foot bridges.
