TWU Pioneer Power Sprint Tri
July 29, 2012 @ 6:45 am - 10:00 am
The Texas Woman’s University soccer team will host the sixth annual Pioneer Power Sprint Triathlon on Sunday, July 29, 2012, on the picturesque TWU Denton campus.
This USA Triathlon (USAT) sanctioned event is scheduled to begin at 6:45 a.m. and will feature a 300 meter swim, a 26 kilometer (16.1miles) bike ride, and a 3.1 mile run.
For the fourth consecutive year, the race will be produced by Dallas Athletes Racing under the supervision of race director Dan Jones. Multisport enthusiasts in the North Texas area will recognize Dallas Athletes as the company responsible for such wildly popular events as the St. Patrick’s Day, Caveman, TexasMan, Disco, and Monster triathlons.
The 2012 Pioneer Power Sprint will feature a challenging yet enjoyable race course. The 300 meter swim will take place in the 50 meter TWU Fitness and Recreation outdoor pool. The bike route travels out-and-back an aesthetically-pleasing stretch of Highway 428. The run will be a one-loop path that begins on the TWU Pioneer Golf Course before finishing at the Hubbard Hall oval in the center of the TWU campus.
Competitors in the 2011 Pioneer Power Sprint will receive a tech shirt, performance socks, and a finisher medal. The post-race festivities will include live music, free food and drink, awards, and more giveaways.
