Description

Staged out of beautiful Smith Mountain Lake State Park this triathlon classic has clear water, mountain views and fun courses. The swim features a sandy beach start and a crisp, clear lake. The bike and run courses are rolling, but not too challenging. This is a great race if you are just starting out in the sport, or have been racing for 20 years. Smith Mountain Lake is home to numerous lodging options and attractions. There is great trail running in the park and the Blue Ridge Parkway isn’t too far away if you want to stay the night and ride again on Sunday. With numerous B&B’s, breweries and wineries in the area this race needs to be on your “racecation” bucket list!

Race Comments

 

Be part of the great experience. Here are some comments from last year’s Smith Mountain Lake Triathlon race.

"Everything about this race is great: excellent communication, extremely well run, great volunteers, beautiful venue!"

"I am a runner and this was my first triathlon. I would encourage any other “runners” who are on the fence about trying to give this one a shot! Kinetic Multisports was more organized than any running event I’ve been too, answered all my pre race questions, and had so many water safety measures in place I didn’t feel unsafe at any point. It was a high energy, amazing experience!"

Swim Start

Time Trial Swim Start: Kinetic Multisports races utilize a time trial swim start. We'll start two (2) athletes at a time every few seconds. Athletes line up based on swim and overall finish times, faster up front, slower in the back to create a smoother race for everyone.

Elite Box Start: In conjunction with our time trial swim starts we are excited to announce the official addition of the Elite Box Start at select races. If you are in contention to get Top 20 Overall Male/Female or just want to race up front, this is for you. Simply work your way to the front of the swim start area on race day. We'll get you lined up and started first, then athletes two at time every few seconds thereafter. The Elite Box Start concept worked well at many races last year and we are excited to add this feature to more races.
