Course Info: "The World's Most Beautiful and Most Savage Triathlon"

Tired of stopwatch-obsessed, drafting plagued races on boring courses in mediocre locations? Ready to test your inner Savage? The SavageMan 70.0 is a beautiful and challenging course that brings triathlon back to its roots.

Not convinced - read the most enthusiastic testimonials ever, or view brief video remarks of 2008 & 2009 champs, 70.3 world record bike holder, Bjorn Andersson, and Susan Williams, the only U.S. Olympic triathlon medalist to-date with a comparison to St. Croix's "Beast". Or, listen to two-time IM champion and 2007 overall winner, Chris McDonald compare SavageMan to Auburn's "World's Toughest Half"

This "Savage Race to Fight a Savage Cancer" is organized by "TRI-TO-WIN" Events, the triathlon fundraising arm of the Joanna M. Nicolay Melanoma Foundation, where 100% of all race proceeds further the mission to be "the voice of melanoma prevention, detection, care and cure." www.melanomaresource.org

More: A very hilly and very beautiful 70.0 distance triathlon, featuring the 31% Westernport Wall, Big Savage Mountain and Killer Miller. Get over the Wall without unclipping and walking and earn your personalized engraved brick laid in the road itself. Compare your time over the 7.1 mile Big Savage Mountain to others in the Hammer Nutrition Big Savage Challenge.

$8000 in pro prize money to top 5 overall, and primes for fastest swim/bike/run of day
