The Swim
The Swim is a 1/2 mile clockwise loop around beautiful Randolph Lake. There will be 4 waves, sent 5 minutes apart. The start is "in-water" - stronger swimmers can jump in from a dock and warm up in between waves, weaker swimmers can wait on the dock until their wave starts. This is a deep quarry lake, so water temperatures
fluctuate, but expect it to be around 70 degrees. Wetsuits are permitted.
The Bike
The bike is a 16.4 mile rolling course that takes you through the countryside of Randolph and Chester Townships. Click HERE to follow the route in Google Maps - this is a great way for you to get acquainted with the course. You can drag and zoom the maps to follow the route, and can even turn the map into a satellite photo. If you like, you can also see mile markers and an elevation profile. It's really cool, hope you enjoy it...

1) Start of the bike - riders will NOT
cross Route 10, they will ride a short
stretch on Rt 10W (blocked off by
cones) to the ramp to Sussex Turnpike,
and ride underneath Route 10. Riders
MUST exercise caution on this ramp to
Sussex Tpk, as the road surface is poor
|
2) The scenic loop around the Black River
Wildlife Management Area - several long
climbs to keep it interesting. Riders MUST
exercise caution on the right turn from Oakdale
Road to Pleasant Hill Road - this is a steep
descent leading into a sharp right turn, please
watch your speed to ensure a safe turn here. |
