The Lake Logan Sprint Triathlon highlights the second day of the Lake Logan Multi Sport Festival. This race was added in 2009 and includes all of the great features of the international distance race on Saturday but in a smaller scale.
The swim takes place in this pristine mountain lake finishing underneath the highway bridge in the mouth of the river. The bike course is a balloon shaped course taking riders out and back to Bethel. The run course has a 1-2% elevation for the outward half making for a fast finish to the race.
