* NEW FOR 2010
THE KIRKLAND TRIATHLON WILL TAKE PLACE
AT 8AM ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 18

ABOUT THIS EVENT
Kirkland's Triathlon at Carillon Point made its phenomenal debut in September of 2002. A field of over 1300 athletes made it one of the largest first-year sprint triathlons in U.S. history. Set in the city of Kirkland, just across Lake Washington from Seattle, this year's race is expected to sell out once again so REGISTER EARLY!
