Does anyone know of any aquathons this year in the Chicago region? Or more info about aquathons anywhere? Also, what’s the best site to check out upcoming triathlons? Thx!
not much to choose from in michigan…but give it a few weeks.
my preferred calendar site is www.cooltri.com
Karen McKeachie offers more info and better info about events than most other similar sites.
I was goofing off on my mountain bike and actually came across an aquathon using part of a trail for the running portion and I managed to catch the start of the swim. I had never even heard of this type of event before today. About 50 folks it looked like in Cupertino, California.
Did a quick search and found it here

I know the local juice chain,Jamba Juice even carries a monthly mag that advertises multisport events.
You probably have something similar in your area.
Here’s a place to start looking.

About 6 hours from Chicago but a great event. I watched it last year, it was really neat, something for those of us cycling challenged. Swimmers dominated because of the short run though. Probably wont be wetsuit legal (wasn’t last year)
