Since 2016, this Manchester, IA event has raised over $77,000 for local fire, ambulance, and law enforcement while welcoming athletes of all skill levels to compete solo or in teams of 2-3 people. The sprint triathlon includes a 400-yard swim in Schram Pond, a 16-mile bike ride with rolling hills, and a mostly flat 5K run with one hill, while the duathlon replaces the swim with a 1-mile run before the same bike and run courses. Your entry covers your race bib, t-shirt, finisher award, and timing chip—all benefiting an important cause!
