HARVEST MOON TRIATHLON EVENT DESCRIPTION:
The long course triathlon is a 1.2 mile swim in the crystal clear waters of Boulder Reservoir, a rolling 56 mile country ride on the roads of Boulder County (2-laps), and a scenic 13 mile run.  The run course is a 2-lap loop half run course around the reservoir on the dirt roads and trails! The Harvest Moon Triathlon is Colorado's longest running and most affordable long course. So mark you calendars for September. The Harvest Moon Triathlon truly is where Colorado comes to race.

HARVEST MOON DUATHLON EVENT DESCRIPTION:
 The Long Course Duathlon changes out the swim for a 5k run to start things out. Duathletes will all begin in the same wave after all of the swimmers have entered the water. An aid station will be set up at the finish of the 5K Run. Following the opening run, racers will then follow the same bike and second run courses as the triathletes. There will be one aid station at mile-3 of the first 5K run. The first 5k is rolling terrain with a mix of hard packed trail and wide cement running paths with a dirt shoulder.  Colorado's only long-course duathlon, attracts 100 athletes every year competing for great prizes and raffles from our sponsors!The Duathlon wave will take off at 7:30. Between us you have the hardest event of the day having to run twice, so we'd like to get you out of the sun before the heat of the day!
