Race
History - Back in 1982, a small company by the
name of Anheuser-Busch
decided to get involved with a sport that was growing
steadily in popularity -
triathlon. For those of you who have been in the sport
long enough, the Bud Light triathlon series may ring
a bell.
The
Hagg Lake Triathlon was one of the stops on the six-city
Bud Light Triathlon Series tour. Th Northwest actually
played host to two of the six event, the other taking
place in the Seattle area (Mercer Island in '82 and
Bainbridge Island in '83). The Bud Light Series actually
continued to criss-cross the country through the mid-90's,
but only continued it's Hagg Lake stop until 1987.
The
Bud Light Triathlon Series played an integral part
in jumpstarting the sport of triathlon here in the
Northwest. The venue really hasn't changed much since
the early eighties. The water's still wet and the
bike course is still challenging.

COURSE
Olympic
Distance:
The
Hagg Lake course is famous for its race history, scenic
beauty, and challenge. The swim is a two counter
clockwise laps, 1500 meter triangular with water temperatures
in the mid 70's. The bike course is challenging with
rolling hills. Cyclists will complete two counter-clockwise
loops around the lake. Both loops will include a
two mile out and back section on Scoggins Valley Road.
The 6.2mile run is also scenic and challenging, with
an out and back course clockwise along the lake side
road.
Sprint

The
Sprint course is basically a shortened version of
the Olympic distance, which will include a 1/2-mile
swim, one complete loop (including one out-and-back
on Scoggins Valley Road) on the bike, and a 5k run.
Duathlon:
Duathlon
participants will begin with a 5k run. The bike portion
consists of two counter-clockwise loops around the
lake. Each loop will include the two mile out and
back section that the triathletes will also cover.
The final run will take place on the same course as
the first leg (5K) of the duathlon. (this event is
a TRI NorthWest Duathlon ranked race)
