Burrito Union 10 and 5 Hour Triathlon

Located in and around beautiful Pattison State Park, the Triathlon challanges the athlete within us to compete for 5 or 10 hours individually or with a partner or three-person team in relays.

This triathlon is poised to be the "must do" end of the year race! Why? Because it is not only going to be a great challenge, but a PARTY!

We have 3 formats for the 600M Swim, 10.4 Mile Road Bike, 3.1 Mile Trail Run sprint course:

FAT CAPITALIST
Doin’ the whole thing by yourself.

IMPERIALISTS
2-person relay (male, female, co-ed)

Each person does a full triathlon, and then tags off to teammate. You have to alternate triathlons. In other words, one person cannot do two triathlons back-to-back. Be prepared for mechanical mishaps and fatigue. If there is a mechanical problem, you will need to solve it ASAP. Be sure to pace yourself, stay hydrated and eat right so you can finish strong.

COMRADES
3-person relay (male, female, co-ed (any mix of male to female)
Each person does one segment in the triathlon. One person swims, and then tags off to biker, biker then tags off to runner. Each person HAS to do a leg in each triathlon. You can mix it up, but all three members of the team must do a segment in every triathlon.

NOTE: These rules are subject to change without regards to the democratic process. The details of the tag zone, the tagging process and other race specifics will be explained in the mandatory pre-race meeting on Friday September 10th at 5:00 pm or 7:00 pm at Pattison State Park (one person from each team must be present).

The person/team that does the most triathlons in the 5/10-hour period wins their respective race. You can do one triathlon, stop throw some meat and potatoes on the grill, hang out w/ friends or, you can do each triathlon back-to-back. The swim course closes at the 10-hour mark. If you start the swim at 9:59 you will do one morefull triathlon. Your order of finish, plus the number of triathlons completed, will determine your overall finish.

We’ll have great food, shirts for athletes, commemorative pint glasses, swag and awards. You won't want to miss this year's BURRITO UNION 5 & 10 HOUR TRI!
