Event Description
Join TRITOFINISH at beautiful Sanford Lake Park in Midland County for the 5thAnnual Sanford Lake Triathlon presented by Great Lakes Retirement Solutions, Inc.! This event is special to us as we are based right here in the Great Lakes Bay Region and with a Super Sprint Triathlon event being part of it, we are able to encourage a whole new group of athletes to Tri!
With over a half-mile of lake frontage and 1000 feet of soft, sandy beach on the shores of Sanford Lake, this popular recreation area is a wonderful spot to nurture that golden tan and enjoy the sun. It also makes for a pretty sweet Triathlon venue! And by having this race in June, the swim should be free of weeds and ideal for all those newbies looking to compete in their first triathlon.
This race is for both the seasoned athlete AND anyone looking to “test the triathlon waters”. Olympic, Sprint, Super Sprint and Sprint Duathlon are all on the agenda. Unable to participate in all disciplines? Get a team of 2-3 together and compete in a relay! However you choose to participate, we look forward to seeing you at the Finish line. See you in June!

REFUND AND TRANSFER POLICY
We completely understand that plans change and athletes will sometimes be unable to compete in an event they've signed up for. Unfortunately, refunds will not be provided for any event unless the event is cancelled for reasons within our control. Dangerous weather, natural disasters, and local emergencies are examples of reasons an event may be cancelled that are NOT within our control.
Should an athlete have an injury or other medical issue keeping them from competing in an event they've registered for, we would be happy to transfer their registration to a similar TriToFinish-owned event up to and including the same event the following season. A doctor's slip may be required as proof of injury or ailment. Failure to provide proof if requested will result in non-transfer of the event.
Transferring registrations to other athletes is NOT allowed.
