My First Triathlon® Full Iron

2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run

 

 

Dear Athletes,

 

Welcome to My First Triathlon® Full Iron

 

“No Experience Allowed” is the entry requirement for My First Triathlon Full Iron.

 

Due to the overwhelming popularity of the My First Triathlon, World Endurance Sport has developed the My First Triathlon Full Iron.  A full iron distance triathlon exclusive to the first time competitor.

 

The Bigfoot Triathlon Festival in 2006 will be the qualifier for this unique concept in ultra distance events.

 

The event takes place in Harrison Mills, 50 miles East of Vancouver, British Columbia.  The swim is along the shore line of Harrison Bay in shallow waters where athletes can stand up and take a break if they get nervous or tired.  The water is crystal clear, in fact it is so clean athletes can hydrate while swimming.  The bike course is almost pancake flat with only a few small rolling hills at the turn points. The marathon run is also flat with only a few slight inclines.

 

To gain entry into the My First Triathlon Full Iron division of the Bigfoot Triathlon athletes cannot have participated in this distance before.

 

The Bigfoot Full Iron Triathlon starting in 2007 will be exclusive to first time competitors as well as returning Bigfoot athletes.  The returning athletes will automatically become the Triathlon Ambassadors who will inspire the first timers before during and after the event.

 

This friendly concept of triathlon will introduce athletes who wish to accomplish a great achievement without the intimidation factor.

 

Limited space will be available to experienced competitors however the main focus of the event will be geared towards the first time competitors
