XTERRA DINO Northern Indiana is the closest XTERRA Triathlon to Chicago, and a great choice for first-timers. It's flowy, fast, and fun for the experienced off-roader as well.
Full Distance Triathlon
The triathlon begins with a 1/2 mile swim before exiting the lake and heading into a fast and flowy 15 mile two-lap mountain bike course. But save some energy for the final 7K trail run as you'll have 2 challenging hills to conquer before crossing the line.
Kayak Triathlon
Skip the swim and grab a paddle. This triathlon with a twist starts with a 1-mile kayak before transferring to the bike for a 15-mile two-lap ride. It's then a footrace to the finish with a scenic 7km trail run.
