The Early Bird Triathlon & Run, held at Carleton University in Ottawa, is Ontario's earliest multi-sport event of the season, featuring a variety of race options including long and sprint triathlons, duathlons, and running events. Unique to this event is the indoor 50m pool swim, offering a triathlon experience without open water swimming. The scenic course runs along Colonel By Drive, showcasing views of the Rideau Canal, Carleton University, Dows Lake, and Lansdowne, with bike and run routes closed to traffic for safety.
