Aqua Dash returns for 2024! The Aqua Dash is a 20 minute indoor swim followed by a 20 minute run on treadmills. For the experienced triathlete, the Aqua Dash is a great complement to your off season triathlon training, providing you with an opportunity to test your skills. It is also the perfect event for those new to multi-sport events; offering an exciting, encouraging and non-intimidating environment.

The event will be organized in waves of 6 participants. The first wave will begin at 7:30am, with the following waves beginning every 25 minutes.

THE TRANSITION
You are allowed 5 minutes to transition from the pool to the treadmill.
