Course Tours

For 2013, Life Time Tri Minneapolis is also offering course tours leading up to the event. This is your chance to get in some extra practice and familiarize yourself with the bike and run routes.

All course tours begin at 4955 West Nokomis Parkway in the parking lot used for the transition area. Tours will depart at 7 a.m. to bike the sprint course. Sprint course folks will turn off at Cedar Avenue while anyone interested in the international course will continue around Lake Harriet returning to Lake Nokomis. We will have a lead biker and a sweep biker to ensure no one gets lost. Please note, this is a no drop course tour.

Following the bike, Mike Buenting will put on his running shoes and take a single loop run around Lake Nokomis.
