The swim is a simple triangulation around one buoy. This is an open water swim in a clean, spring-fed reservoir with a warm, dry climate. Wetsuits are not mandatory, and are not needed, as the water will be warm enough in June to go without. However, wetsuits are permitted as per USAT rules. 0.75K / 0.47 mile

course map

The bike course is a nicely rolling loop around the reservoir. Transition 1 is just above the boat ramp, and head out from there down Ross road, circling by the Wamic store, and back by the airstrip, before finishing turning into the first turn into the campground. 15K / 9.32 mile

course map

The run course is a 5K out-and-back. It starts at Transition 2 at the campground, and hits a hard-pack gravel road just after 1 kilometer. Another kilomometer and a half, and there's a turn-around at the bottom of a slightly steep hill, and you run back, finishing at the campground. 5K / 3.11 mile

The Sprint Triathlon is a swim, bike, run.

The Pumice Man event is an Aussie-double triathlon, which is swim, bike, run, swim, bike, run. The finish of the run ends next to the beach which bears the start of the swim. Sprint Triathloners are done here, and run through the finish line. The Pumice Man athletes simply run to Transition 3 / Start area, and jump back into the Reservoir to do it all over again.

The Pumice Man is a 1.5K swim, 30K bike, and 10K run, totalling all six legs.

(0.94 mile swim, 18.64 mile bike, 6.22 mile run)
