WHAT GREAT LAKES MULTISPORT EVENTS PROVIDES
We provide technically sound, safe, and exciting events. Participants receive a DRI WICK SHIRT, Custom Logo Pint Glass, goody bag, chip timing, food and fun after the event. There will also be plenty of water and Gatorade stations along the course.
Bike racks will have your race number and wave you start in. Each mile on the run courses will be marked. All courses will have highly visible signage for each turn. The long bike course will have aid stations and bottle exchange.
Sign up early! The wave you are in is a first-come first-serve basis and is determined on how early you register.
