THIRD annual Tri The Gulf sprint triathlon will be held on beautiful Dauphin Island, AL "sunset capital of Alabama". The triathlon will be based at the Isle Dauphine Club campus. It will include a 600 yard "cable tow" open water swim in the protected waters of "Pelican Bay" (an inlet off of the Gulf), followed by a 16.7 mile bike ride that includes two trips over the famous Dauphin Island Bridge and on the beautiful island, followed by a 3.25 mile run, which is primarily on the Isle Dauphine Golf Course with scenic views of the Gulf of Mexico. There will be a fantastic after-the-event party. All of the net proceeds benefit charitable/civic concerns in the Greater Mobile, AL metropolitan area. The triathlon is sponsored by the Mobile Bar Foundation. This is an USA Triathlon sanctioned event with a USA Triathlon certified race director. The triathlon will begin at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 20, 2018 |
