Florida ANVIL 2027
The Florida ANVIL takes place February 26–27, 2027 at Lake Louisa State Park in Clermont, Florida. The event includes multi-distance ultra triathlons and relay options, with swim, bike, and run segments conducted on measured loop courses inside and adjacent to the park. All races are sanctioned and insured by USA Triathlon and require a single day USAT pass; the organizer is also working with IUTA on optional athlete programs that may include additional standards or costs.
Race triathlon distances:
- Single Anvil Triathlon: 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run
- 1.5x Anvil Triathlon: 3.6 mile swim, 168 mile bike, 39.3 mile run
- Double Anvil Triathlon: 4.8 mile swim, 224 mile bike, 52.4 mile run
The swim is held from the park beach on Lake Louisa, a shallow lake with depths generally no greater than 8 to 9 feet and typical water temperatures around 65 to 70 degrees, so wetsuits are recommended. Swims use an out and back loop pattern with a 2112 foot / 644 meter course and multiple laps depending on distance.
The bike uses a measured 6.009 mile loop inside the park with multiple laps; riders must wear an ANSI or Snell approved helmet, may not draft, and must use lights for night riding. The run is a 1.00769 mile loop on asphalt with multiple laps per distance. Support must be conducted from the race village rather than on course, and the race clock continues during any rest.
