About the race
Rumpus in Bumpass is a triathlon weekend at Pleasants Landing Marina on Lake Anna in Bumpass, VA, held on April 17, 2027. The event offers both Olympic and Sprint triathlon and aquabike options that use lake swims, paved rolling bike roads, and lightly rolling paved run sections through fields, forest and along the South Anna River.
Swim courses take place in the southeast portion of Lake Anna where water temperatures are expected to be warmer than other parts of the lake, typically in the mid 60s at this time of year. Swim courses are supported, include two right turns, and have sighting buoys every 75 meters. The swim area is spectator friendly with views from a peninsula.
Bike courses use low-traffic, well paved roads with rolling terrain; the Olympic bike is two loops, the Sprint a single loop. Run courses are out-and-back or multi-loop courses that leave transition, pass a short woods and gravel section, and finish adjacent to transition.
Additional event details: packet pickup occurs Friday evening and Saturday morning at the race site; participants must collect their own packet and show photo ID. The event is USA Triathlon sanctioned and registration fees are non-refundable; parking at the marina is limited and off-site parking is used for late arrivals.
