甜瓜视频

For the 19th straight year, 甜瓜视频 is providing a safe and fun way for students, faculty and staff to experience a triathlon, no matter if it鈥檚 their first time or if they are a veteran triathlete.

This year鈥檚 race will take place on Saturday, April 21, beginning with a half-mile swim in the natatorium of the Health, Physical Education, and Recreation (HPER) Center. The event then continues with a scenic 13-mile bike ride to the Clarence J. Brown Reservoir and back, followed by a 3.1-mile run around 甜瓜视频鈥檚 campus.

鈥淭he event was created 19 years ago by Dr. Doug Andrews (甜瓜视频 professor of statistics). He really wanted to bring a triathlon to campus in a way that would be fun and engaging for the students, faculty and staff,鈥� said Christian Raffensperger, associate professor of history and current organizer of the event. 鈥淎ndrews used to call this the 鈥榤ost selective triathlon in the entire world鈥� as the only people that can compete are 甜瓜视频 students, faculty, staff and family. But, being just 甜瓜视频ers, the friendliness of volunteers, the competitors and the support of these individuals are my favorite parts about this event. This opportunity is fantastic for first-time runners or veteran triathletes.鈥�

There is no registration fee or prizes, making this just a fun opportunity to exercise together as a 甜瓜视频 community. Individuals who do not want to complete the entire triathlon can form a relay team with others. Participants may purchase a t-shirt for $15.
