Rock the Quarry Triathlon and Mile Swim
The 11th annual Rock the Quarry Triathlon and Mile Swim is scheduled for Saturday, August 8, 2026 at Fidler Pond Park in Goshen, Indiana. The event uses a former rock quarry pond that is open for swimming only on this day of the year.
The weekend program includes a sprint triathlon and a separate mile swim event. Distances for the main races are:
- 500 yard swim
- 15.8 mile bike
- 5K run
- 1 mile open water swim
The sprint triathlon swim is a triangular counter-clockwise course that begins and ends at the same point. The bike leg is a flat out-and-back route with right and left turns, passing through an industrial park and then into rural roads toward Millersburg before returning. The run is two laps around a flat aggregate track that encircles Fidler Pond and allows views of other competitors along the course.
The mile swim follows a counter-clockwise course tracing the pond perimeter. Mile swim participants are chip-timed and timing ends when a swimmer crosses a timing mat placed on land at the water's edge of the swim exit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
