This is a great race put on in Central Illinois in July with great volunteer support, a flat course, and solid competition. Last year, Bryan Rhodes came to compete and there is talk of him coming back for more at this year’s 3rd annual Evergreen Triathlon.
The Evergreen Triathlon is being held Saturday, July 19th, 2008 at Comlara County Park near Hudson, IL.
This year, the race is opening up a sprint distance (500m swim, 40k bike, 5k run) as well as the usual Olympic distance (1.5k swim, 40k bike, 10krun).
The Olympic race has been selected as the 2008 USAT Mideast Regional Championship.
