My local tri club is putting on a nice oly/super sprint race in June Lake July 7th. June Lake is just north of Mammoth Lakes and just south of Yosemite in the beautiful eastern sierra. Should be a very nice challenging race - probbaly only 100-max 200 racers so it won’t be crowded at all. Swim in June Lake - low 60’s crystal clear water - gorgeous lake. Ride around June Lake loop with a pretty challenging climb towards the end. Run will be mixed road/dirt and is a bit longer than 10K (I think 6.8 or so). Will be very low-key, grass-roots and will support local tri club/local organizations. Elevation about 7000 feet - weather should be great.
Anyone not doing something that weekend, I highly recommend this area. Airs a little thin, but the scenery will be worth it, and the course will challenge you. It’s right next to one of my secret spots for training(sorry, it’s a secret). Only wish I was avaiable, I’d be there in a New York minute…
