Tupelo King of the Hill Triathlon

May 1st, 2010

 

Come join the fun on May 1st, 2010 at the Fifth Annual King of Hill Triathlon at Tombigbee State Park, in Tupelo, Mississippi.  We are excited about the move of this venue to earlier in the season which fills a void in the race calendar.  The water will be cleaner, the temperatures should be cooler, and it will be a great way to prepare for the upcoming season. The beautiful surroundings of the Park and the challenging course in and on its outskirts will provide participants with a great triathlon experience.  The race will begin at 8:00 am and a post race party will follow with awards presentations. This will be a chip timed race and will be sancioned by USAT.

When

May 1st 2010 at 8:00am   Transition will open at 6:00am. Park admission is 3.00 per vehicle.
