Tampa General Hospital Loggerhead Triathlon

Draws Record Crowds

More than 600 athletes from across the country descended
on Jupiter, Fla., for the Tampa General Hospital Loggerhead
Triathlon on Saturday, August 28. The slightly cloudy day
offered ideal race conditions.
The event, which dates back to 1985, has become a must
on the southeast race circuit. The triathlon course included
a 3/8-mile swim in the Atlantic Ocean off Carlin Park, a 13-
mile bike ride down A1A into Juno Beach, and culminated
with a 3.1-mile (5K) run to the Jupiter Inlet and back to the
park. For the first time, the event also featured a duathlon
for those who wanted to skip the swimming portion.
