This program is conducted by the founders of the Mightyman: Steve Tarpinian and Chris Pfund.
Although the main focus is for the Mightyman Half Triathlon, the workshop will be a great addition to all athletes of all levels participating in the Mightyman, Mighty Hamptons or any fall triathlon.
A two day training workshop on the actual Mightyman course is included. The official training program for the Mightyman is available from TTUniversity.com Our maps are available at eventpowerli.com to everyone in the Information package for the Mightyman event.
This super sprint distance is perfect for beginner triathletes. This is a terrific race date because it falls one week before two near by Half Iron distance events (Poconos 70.3 and the MightyMan Montauk) making it a great tune up for athletes participating in one of these premiere events. What a terrific opportunity to practice your transitions and make sure all your equipment is working properly.
SWIM-1.5 K (.93 mile) Peconic River swim with time trial start; water temperature 69-72 degrees.
BIKE- 40K (24.8 Miles) An AWESOME one lap bike course, mostly flat with a couple of rolling hills.
RUN-10 K (6.2 miles) A 2 lap fast, flat course through the heart of downtown Riverhead with a dramatic finish in front of the historic Suffolk Theatre. Water stops will be at every 1 mile.
Fast 500 meter Narrow Bay swim that continues on to a flat and fast 20K (12.3 mile) bike ride over the Smith Point Bridge to Wertheim National Refuge and back, followed by a scenic 5K (3.1 mile) run over the bridge ending at the Atlantic Ocean.
Great beginner and veteran sprint distance course, calm water, mostly flat bike loop with one challenging climb. The run is beautiful and mostly flat with a 1 Kilometer rolling section around Fort Pond. Great weekend for any triathlon enthusiast, to be in Montauk at the best time of the year (after the crowds are gone yet all the restaurants, hotels, attractions are still open) and the weather is ideal.
Eighth Annual Race! A spectacular course and an instant classic end of season race. Hailed as one tough course. Triathlete Magazine’s must do ½ distance triathlon.
