Trek Women Triathlon Series New England Race

Join Hall of Fame triathlete Sally Edwards, Spokeswoman/Chief Inspiration Officer for the Trek Women Triathlon Series in this life-changing triathlon where every participant is a winner! Series Director Maggie Sullivan has been a major force in building participation opportunities within the sport of triathlon for women for over 19 years. The event starts with a .5 mile Swim from Snow Lake’s sandy beach. Snow Lake is a 10-acre spring-fed lake with average water temperature of 72 degrees in August. Athletes will bike through the Vermont countryside on 12 miles of gently rolling backcountry roads – an out and back course on Handle Road. The 3.1 mile Run segment is a combination of roads and mountain trails within the confines of the Mount Snow Resort. Spectators will enjoy unobstructed views of the swim course and the tremendous Green Mountain vistas of the Mount Snow Resort. Triathletes will enjoy a rolling course, great volunteers, an exciting Finish Line near the Resort’s Grand Summit Hotel. On the charity front, The Trek Women Triathlon Series is partnering with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and The National Association of Team Survivor, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization for women who have a present or past diagnosis of cancer. Team Survivor provides women with free group exercise, health education classes and support programs. The Trek Women Triathlon Series and Team Survivor allow women in the program to train, receive complimentary race registration for their first triathlon and benefit from special race day support.
