Note: Traffic Advisory for the weekend

We have just heard from the NYS DOT that on Saturday AM starting at 4AM through Monday the 390N entrance to the Ontario State Parkway will be closed for construction.  Detours will be posted and you can certainly google what is best for you depending on where you are travelling from.

The detour is as follows:

To the Hamlin Beach (from South and from East): 390N to Latta Rd exit.  Turn left to Long Pond Northbound.  Get onto Parkway from Long Pond.

From Hamlin Beach (to South or East): Ontario State Pkwy to Long Pond exit.  Head south bound to Vintage.  Left on Vintage to 390 S.

Again – I recommend googling what is best for you depending on where you are coming from.  Please plan accordingly.

Day 2 - Shoreline Triathlon & Duathlon

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.

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 70 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

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 West side 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.  The run course is now 2 Loops for the second run.  The Duathlon's first run is one loop of this in the opposite direction.
