Welcome to the fifth annual FirstTry Triathlon, a triathlon designed specifically for first timers. If you are not a first time triathlete please sign up for the FastTry, which is the competitive version of the FirstTry. The distance is what we call a Super Sprint (half a sprint).
The concept of the FirstTry is to offer a race that gives you the experience of racing in a "real" triathlon without the intimidation factor.

Miscellaneous
Awards: All finishers of FirstTry and FastTry will receive an Official Triathlon Medallion at the finish line. Age group awards will be given to FastTry winners only.
Ages: All ages are welcome and we will have age groups for the kids too.
What to wear: Most athletes wear a swimsuit then just throw on either their bike shorts or running shorts for each portion of the event. Bring a large towel if you wish to change. No public nudity, please!
Bike Inspections: Bikes will be checked to see that wheel levers are secure when you arrive in the morning.
Bike Racks in Transition Zone: We have specially designed bike racks that hold your bike and leave room for you to have your running and swimming gear along side.
Mountain or Road Bike: It does not matter, road bikes are faster but mountain bikes let you check out the scenery a bit better. It is also fun passing a road bike while on your mountain bike.
Helmets: Mandatory gear - no exceptions!
Entry includes: Wicking tech-materical race t-shirt, race results, post-race refreshments, and Official Finishers Medal. Also, NEW FOR 2015, every participant will also receive free photos!
