Looking for a new and fun sporting even to participate in? Keep your eyes peeled for a triathlon hosted by Wesleyan’s Wellness Center in the spring!

Wellness Center Coordinator Nikita O’Connor, along with yours truly, is in the beginning stage of event planning. The triathlon will be a beginner-friendly, flat, and fun course that anyone can race.

A triathlon is an even in which you swim, bike, and run within the same competition. Events are completed consecutively, without breaks. It is a true test of endurance and fitness, and it lets you hit three completely different sport disciplines all in a short period of time! The swimming portion will take place in Wesleyan’s natatorium; the bike course will roll down the flat streets of Buckhannon; the running portion will take place on the Riverwalk Trail—the making for an easy triathlon for students, faculty, and community members alike!

Stay tuned to learn more about his event!
