Race Course Description |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Set in the historic city of Salem, the Witch City race venue is located in beautiful Forest River Park. The swim course is a .5 mile ocean swim in a fairly sheltered cove in Salem Harbor. After a quick change in the transition zone, the athletes take on the 13 mile bike course. This fast bike course follows city streets out to Marblehead Neck. (It can get a bit windy on the way out to the neck). After three loops around the neck, allowing plenty of time to check out some gorgeous homes, it's back through the city streets to Forest River Park. After another quick transition in the transition zone, it's on to the run course--a single loop around the streets of Salem, back into Forest River Park, and under the huge FIRM finish banner where you can grab a refreshing bottle of water before rehashing your race with your buddies. |
