This race course starts with a two lap swim in warm clear waters of a mountain lake. After the swim, racers then head out on a two lap mountain biking course that skirts the lake on twisty single-track trails before heading up the famed Evitt's Revenge. Racers head back to the transition area through a mix of open grassy fields and lakeside single-track. The run has rooty trails, smooth open flats, and one big climb. All in all, this off-road triathlon course is super fun and sure to challenge and excite both the Newbies and Seasoned Vets alike!

The XTERRA EX2 Off-Road Triathlon is one of over 50 points series races held in the United States. Competitors earn points based on their finishing place. Racers use these points to vie for the title of XTERRA Regional Champion thus qualifying for the XTERRA USA Championship held in Lake Tahoe at the end of the 2008 season. Do well at Nationals and take a trip to Worlds... We hear that Hawaii is quite nice in October.
