Hamlin Beach Tri/Shoreline Triathlon History

This race has a LONG and RICH History as one of the oldest triathlons in the US.  Although it has undergone quite a few course/distance and director changes, this event still stands as an old school triathlon.

Check out its long history of winners/distances/directors here.  Many thanks to Carl Johnston for compiling this historical paper.

The race starts at 8:15AM.  We will have 2 waves.  The women go off first, then men and teams go off second (5 minutes after the women).  If for any reason park officials deem the water not swimmable (note - there is no reason to be concerned now, everything is fine) BUT, just in case - the event will be a Run Bike Run, with the first Run about 1.5 to 2 miles long.  Transition opens at 7AM.  Make sure you get your timing chip and body marked as you enter transition.  You must wear a timing chip, no chip no time.  Also, if you wear a wetsuit - wear the chip under the wetsuit.  The course is open to traffic so please heed caution.  Thank all the volunteers because they are here for you.  Also, the post race food is for the athletes, so if you bring your family (which we hope you do), please know athletes get first dibs on food. 

Swim Course: Wetsuits are HIGHLY recommended.  We will be swimming in Lake Ontario in a triangle shape.  If the water is deemed too rough by Park Officials the swim will be replaced with a run.  The temperature can range anywhere from 55 to 68 degrees and the water terrain can be calm or wavy depending on wind flow.  WETSUITS ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.  Wetsuits can be rented or purchased from Fleet Feet Sports.

Transition: This is located in the westside of Area 4.  Athletes will enter one way and exit another.

Bike Course:  You will start from transition and head out of the park towards Moscow Rd.  Turn Left onto Moscow Rd, then Right onto Lake Rd East (Rt 19).  Make a right onto Church Rd, then Right onto Redman, then right back onto Moscow Rd, then left into the park.  Heed CAUTION at all times.  The road is open to traffic.  When entering back into the park, do not head towards Rochester.  PAY ATTENTION Here.  You will follow the loop into the park and back towards the transition.  You will always ride with traffic and never against it.  Keep in mind YOU are responsible to know the course, so drive it, ride or even run it before hand.

Run Course: is on the westside of the park and very well marked.  The run is relatively flat with some parts on the trail section at the west side of the park.  The trails are fairly easy and help break up the run.  This map is not to scale since part of it is on trails, but is extremely well marked.  There are 3 water stops as well.
