Indoor Triathlon

  • Swim 10 Minutes in 25 yard pool (4 feet depth)
  • Bike 30 Minutes on stationary cycle
  • Run 20 Minutes on treadmill.

The combined time for the swim, bike and run is 60 minutes, plus two transitions.  The first transition between the swim and bike is ten minutes and the second transition between the bike to run is five minutes. There will be up to 6 participants in each heat with heats starting every 35 minutes.  The pool has 4 lanes, with two swimmers in each lane.  After completing the swim segment participants will move to the cycle room for the bike segment then upstairs for the run segment.

Each participant will have a set amount of time to swim, bike, and run with allotted transitions between activities.  Fun and pressure-free, this event is great for both experienced triathletes and those competing in their first race.

All three segments are done continuously back to back and the total distance (laps and miles) will be recorded. This will be a ranked score event and the total distance completed will also be listed.

 

All Participants signed up by 11/4/2023 will receive a Black Fleece Beanie Cap with the Tri McConnell logo

 

This event will benefit the OhioHealth Behavioral Medicine/Addiction Medicine Fellowship. All profits from the Tri McConnell will help with educating physicians in addressing the opioid epidemic. Some areas that physicians receive education in are: inpatient psychiatry, pregnant and postpartum women suffering from opioid use disorder, advocacy for changes in local, state and federal health policies, and hands on experience in outpatient recovery.
