"As soon as we jump in the water we are all the same!". Interview with Christian Troger http://t.co/4d664zHY
Course description
A spacious venue centrally located in the northwest metro, Weaver Lake Park boasts 80-acres of event space ideal for visiting competitors, spectators, and race sponsors. Over 1,000 elite, avid and amateur triathletes are expected to make the 2011 event roster and compete in the event’s Sprint, Olympic or the new TRI Star 111 distance.
Beginning in Weaver Lake, athletes will take to the water then make a swift transition to the bike with a course offering scenic views of the Maple Grove, Plymouth and Corcoran landscape. Rounding out the race is a run around Weaver Lake making two loops before finishing in the heart of the park before crowds of spectators.
