We are excited to bring back the Bowling Green Sprint Triathlon at the Preston Miller Park in 2026!  Let's Go!

The Swim segment is 400 Meters in the Russel Sim Aquatic Center with 50-meter lanes to stretch out and build your speed!  This is a serpentine swim.

The Bike segment is14 miles from park left onto Veterans Blvd traversing through some neighborhood roadways, making a loop and coming back to the park via Veterans. 

The Run is a 5k that starts in Park at Transition and is an out and back in the Park and trails.  This is paved and rock chip along the run.
