TEAM
Thanks to our generous title sponsor, Midnight Sun Energy, we will be custom printing a limited number of athletic running shirts for this event. Unfortunately, due to timing and the need to custom order the correct sizes, these will not be ready on race day, but we will follow up after the event. We only have limited quantity, so fulfillment will be based on the registration order of participants. In the future, our aim is to offer more custom Multisport apparel for all our participants.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE COURSES FOR EACH DISTANCE MAY BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE BASED ON THE CONSTRUCTION AROUND THE RUTH INCH POOL
The 2024 Midnight Sun Triathlon will be held on Sunday July 7th and includes both a Try-a-Tri and Sprint distances for adults.
We will also have a kids category for the rest of the family.

Try-a-tri distances will cycle past City Hall, turning left towards the Legislative building and then out toward Chateau Nova and onto the highway. Turn left on Yellowknife Highway and then right onto the Ingraham Trail . The kids course goes to the playground near city hall. The Sprint distance goes out onto Franklin, continuing down onto Kam Lake Rd, with a turnaround point at Grace Lake Blvd. Cycle back up Kam Lake Rd and turn left onto Deh Cho Blvd. Continue to the Yellowknife Hwy and turn right.
