General Information
Registration fees included or disclosed up front?: Yes, all registration/convenience fees are included in price or disclosed up front. Course Info: The swim in a small, no motor, man made lake.
The bike course will take you around the farm country of Mahomet on a rolling, lightly travelled course
The run course is the gem, completely enclosed inside the Lake of the woods park.
More: A park built for multi-sport is what Lake of the woods is all about. We looked at several venues in and around the Champaign area and this was the overwhelming favorite. A no motor, manmade lake surrounded by beautifully kept park grounds and golf course.
The bike course will take you out on slightly rolling farm roads with less than a dozen houses along the route so roads will be lightly travelled. The swim in the lake will be flat, and a two loop affair for the long course. The run will come to be one of the best run courses in the state encompassing the entire park including a run through the covered bridge, in and around the botanical gardens before finishing next to the lake where the post race party will await your finish. This all comes with being minutes from the University of Illinois where you can catch the game with Penn State on Saturday.
Directions: Follow the signs to the designated parking lots in the park.
Map location is based off of a geocode of the addressed entered using Google's Google Maps API. If your address does not geocode properly, you can either update the address (we will attempt to re-geocode after any updates to your entry) or you can use Google's geocoding tool found here: http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/geocoder/singlegeocode.html to obtain a lat/long for your location and enter that. To use the utility, type in an address that is close to your location and then drag-and-drop the marker to obtain the desired lat/long. If you choose to enter a lat/long, you must check the box on the edit page that says, "override geocode with entered lat/long."
