Don't miss out on our third annual triathlon! On Saturday, August 2, 2008, Tri-Masters and 5th Ward Alderman Leslie Hairston (with the support of the City of Chicago and the Chicago Park District) will be hosting South Shore's third annual triathlon. Swimming, biking and running will combine into a day of fun for all! And, this event is a great way to promote self confidence, physical fitness and a positive attitude for our youth athletes and our first-time adult triathletes.

 

The weekend's events begin with the South Shore Tri Package Pick-up on Friday, August 1. Details and location to come!

 

The swim takes place in Lake Michigan with a beach start in shallow water. The bike and run take place on the lake front path and through Jackson Park (on closed streets). This event is a great opportunity for kids and for adults competing in their first triathlon.
