About this Event:
The Whisky Dick Triathlon has been going on for over 30 years. It’s tough, but not impossible! Start with the swim in Vantage in the mighty Columbia River. Get your bike and start the ride into Ellensburg. Make sure you are in the right gear as during the first 12 miles you ascend 1900 feet as you see some beautiful terrain. Finish the ride at the Kittitas Fairgrounds in Ellensburg and start the run heading out onto the John Wayne Trail, then going through some of the town and finish the run at the Fairgrounds. Don't like to swim, then take part in the Duathlon! |
