Description

The state’s Triathlon, Duathlon, Club, and Team Championships… but of course this event is OPEN TO EVERYONE!

Back to our original site at the Belle Isle Casino, where it all started almost 10 years ago. Rest assured if you want to end the season with a lightning fast PR, this is the place and race to achieve that. Test yourself against your time from the Motor City Triathlon and see if you improved your performance over the racing season.

With the smell of autumn in the air, most regular users of the island enjoy a more serene setting as the island starts to calm down from the hectic summer. That’s why we chose this venue as a "double" venue, once in early summer and once in late summer; and we will make it one worth doing twice. Come to Downtown Detroit and enjoy a baseball or football game, a beautiful night at the theater, symphony, or museum and stay at one of the 4-star casino’s with great food options. So many great things to see and do with your significant other or family!

Course

The swim course has worked really well with Motor City in the past, so that will be unchanged.

The bike is lightning fast - arguably one of the fastest courses in the country - as you get the wind either on the Canada side or U.S. side of the island which enables you to reach speeds over 30mph. It is closed to traffic with coned lanes around the entire island. The difference will be you will enter after completing your laps on the East side of the island at the fountain way drive. This will be indicated by a bike-in structure.  

The run course is flat as well and will loop the south end of the island before bringing you back to the finish line. A course taking you across 4 bridges and around the fountain.
