Pine Lake Triathlon

The Pine Lake Triathlon, held at Pine Lake Park in Sammamish, Washington, features a super sprint course with a 1/4 mile swim in Pine Lake, followed by an 11-mile hilly bike ride on a challenging lollipop loop that must be completed twice. The run covers 6 kilometers, initially sharing part of the bike route before circling the lake to the finish. The event emphasizes safety with certified lifeguards, flaggers, and sheriff patrols, and enforces USAT rules including no drafting.

Participants wear timing chips for accurate scoring across swim, bike, run, and transitions. Amenities include water, gels, Gatorade, first aid, and ample parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
