Summer Triathlon Series

The North Georgia race is event #1 (of 5) in the summer series. See www.fivestarntp.com for more information on the race series, and additional events.

Late Registration & Day of Registration

Late registration is considered any registration after May 12th. We will have extras, but T-shirts will not be guaranteed on race day for anyone registering after May 12. Day of registration starts at 7:00 am.

Event Cap

The adult race is capped at 180 participants...register early, we're expected to sell out fast. If you bring the kids to race too, register for an earlier wave so you're guaranteed to be finished before they start.

Event Beneficiary

The Dawson County swim team is the primary beneficiary of the event. The funds will go towards purchasing training equipment for the team.

The NGSS triathlon has been rescheduled due to lightening and thunderstorms on May 19. The new date is June 23. Same place, but event times have been moved up at least one hour. (The pool at Veteran's Memorial Park opens to the public at noon that day, so we have to be out of the pool before that.)

Th This is Veteran's Park

Kids Race

After all the adults have finished their race the kids will start their event. The adults do they're bike on the road, but the Kids Race will be completely on the park grounds. Visit the Fivestarntp.com page for complete information on either race.

Course

The swim will be done in the Veterans Memorial Pool. The bike leg will be done on the roads through Dawson County; and the run will be done on the park grounds using a combination of the paved walking trail and the track.

Estimated Swim Time

Athletes will be placed for the swim start based on their estimated swim time. This will allow the faster swimmers to go first, and keep them from catching the slower swimmers. Please do your best to have an accurate time.

Additional Information

All pre-registered participants are guaranteed a race t-shirt and some goodies. All race finishers receive a finishers award, as well as placings for overall and all the regular 5 year age groups. Great festive atmosphere for the entire family.
