Third Annual YWCA of Minneapolis
Women’s Triathlon
Sunday, August 15, 2010
8:00 a.m., Lake Nokomis, Minneapolis, MN
Sprint Distance: 500 yd swim/12-14 mile bike/5K run

Registration Now Open!
*Please note: The race venue will be Lake Nokomis (not Lake Calhoun as originally planned). While many in Minneapolis were eager to see the race at Calhoun, traffic and other logistics proved too difficult. We thank the Minneapolis Park Board for looking so extensively into the option. Onward to Lake Nokomis which is a terrific venue with proven course options. We remain thrilled to bring the race home to Minneapolis. Join us on Minneapolis' beautiful lakes, parkways and river road!
