Third Annual Gilbert Lake Triathlon! Saturday, July 2, 2022. Park your bikes at Ryans-16130 Birchwood or Meyers-16146 Birchwood.
Swim
In the lake at 8:00 AM - Start at Meyer’s dock
Two options again this year-remember we’re here to have fun!
• Start and finish at Meyer’s dock after swimming to the trampoline in front of Karlgaards/Whitemans
• Or, we’ll help you out by ferrying you out to the trampoline and you only have to swim back to Meyer’s dock.
Bike
Hop on your bike and head down McKay, go through Northtown, turn right on Beaver Dam, turn right onto the Paul Bunyan Trail, turn right onto Wise Rd, turn right onto Riverside, turn right onto McKay and end up back at Meyer's/Ryan’s driveway. (About a 9-mile bike ride)
Run
Head to the cul-de-sac at the far end of Birchwood Lane, continue back the way you came, but take a left onto Andberg Way, then right onto North Oak Drive, and then take a final right on McKay. Finish to lots of cheering at the “T” at Birchwood and McKay. Way to go! You did it!
We will do our best to have the route marked with chalk. Any form of cheerleading is encouraged, as long as it is kind and good natured.
This is a very friendly event. If you want to even just try part of the route, go for it! We would love to have anyone joining us for a morning of activity!
Join us after for complimentary popsicles and awards. Feel free to stick around and float or swim to cool down.
Any questions call or text Ashli Meyer at 218-839-4122 or Fallon Ryan 218-851-5875.
** All participants swim/bike/run at their own risk**
Please don’t drown, get hit by a truck, or have a heart attack.
Note: Ashli and Fallon have enjoyed coordinating this energetic event, but they are searching for assistance in planning. Please reach out if you are interested in helping this year, or taking over the event prep in the future.
