The North Lake Physical Therapy Gator Grinder Triathlon is an excellent introduction for the first-time triathlete, as well as a great early season event for the experienced racer. All proceeds support the Canby Gators Swim Club. Thank you for your support.

Swim

500-yard (20 lengths, 10 laps) pool swim in a 6-lane, 25-yard pool, with up to 4 swimmers per lane. There will be volunteer lap counters. Drafting is permitted. The swim will be seeded by 500-yard swim-time submissions. Heat assignments will be e-mailed by the Monday before the race. The first heat will be in the water at 7:30 a.m. Check-in at least one hour before your start.

Bike

The one-loop 12-mile bike course is over the beautiful rolling country roads that surround Canby. A bike helmet is mandatory. Drafting is not legal. Volunteers will manage traffic at intersections, but roads will be open to traffic and cyclists will be responsible for their safety. *2024 bike course will be a little different due to construction around the pool. Updated course map will sent out as soon as its approved. Once out of the city proper the course will be the same as previous years.

Run

The 3.1-mile run is mostly on roadways with about one-third on a paved walking trail. The course is flat and fast. Water will be available on the course.

Both variations will follow the same segments as the triathlon course.
