Located between Baltimore and Philadelphia, this triathlon launches from Perryville Community Park, a scenic spot perched on forested bluffs overlooking the upper Chesapeake Bay. You'll swim in the bay with an in-water dock start, tackle a rolling Sprint bike course or a more technical Olympic route mixing suburban and farm scenery with a flat section along River Road, then finish with a mostly flat run that hugs the bay shoreline on sidewalks and back roads. The Cecil County area offers plenty to explore beyond race day, including sailing, hiking, and dining options nearby.
