Music City Triathlon
intermediate distance & short course
NOW IN DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE
31 Years of Tradition in a New Location
Sunday, July 26, 2009
Intermediate Distance 1.5k swim / 40k bike / 10k run
New short course 400yd swim / 20k bike / 5k run
The Music City Triathlon is making a big move to downtown Nashville and moving to mid-summer for its' 31st year. Team Magic took over the event in 2006 at a new location "down the street" from the previous. We truly enjoyed our three years at Nashville Shores and working with their fabulous staff.
As for the basics - we are staging the event on the east side of the Cumberland River in the area around LP Field, home of the NFL Tennessee Titans. The swim will be in the Cumberland River, starting and finishing from the east side - not a point to point swim, but a rectangular type course. Thanks to TDOT - the bike course will be a two-loop 20k course totaling 40k on Ellington Parkway for the intermediate distance and one-loop for the short distance. Ellington Parkway will be completely closed to traffic during the event. The run course will be a two-loop 5k course totaling 10k of running for the intermediate distance and one-loop for the short distance on a nice mix of the east side and the west side of the river in the downtown business district.
Registration Information HERE - the price of entry goes up on July 8th, so be sure to register soon to save $$.
