The Event
The Shelbyville Triathlon Series consists of three separate triathlon races. The series takes place from March to April. The first race has a reversed order of events: a 3 km run, followed by a 6 mile bike, and a 400 yd swim. Races two and three follow the standard order: a 400 yd swim, a bike segment (12 miles and 18 miles respectively), and a 5 km run. The order for the first event is subject to change based on weather.
The Courses
The swim for all events takes place in the indoor pool at Clear Creek Park's Family Activity Center. Participants swim a serpentine pattern across the pool. The bike courses are described as loops with a few large hills. The run courses are out-and-back routes within the park grounds on firm surfaces. The start for races two and three is staggered.
Location & Facilities
The event is located at 717 Burks Branch Rd in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Showers are available at the Family Activity Center after the race.
Awards
Participants who complete all three races receive a medal. Awards are presented to the overall male and female finisher in each race, as well as within age groups (starting with 14 & under, then in 5-year increments). The overall male and female series winners receive a special award. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
