400 yard swim - 8 mile bike - 3.1 mile run

The swim will be held in the brand new Colorado School of Mines Student Recreation Center pool. It is an 8-lane, 25-yard course. Participants will swim two to a lane. Heats will be swum fastest to slowest.

The transition area to the bike is right outside of the pool area. The bike portion of the race will consist of 6 loops around the Colorado School of Mines campus. The run will start at the Student Recreation Center as indicated on the map, then continue down Maple Street to Clear Creek. The route will then follow a trail along Clear Creek and through Golden to a turn around point, and come back the same way.

The majority of the course is shown here, with the bike loop shown in red and the run shown in green. A map of the run continuation is available here.
