JGT is moving to Lake Pflugerville!

Preliminary course maps are posted below. All course details are tentative and subject to change.

Course Description

Sprint Distance: The sprint distance course is a 500 meter swim, 12.9 mile bike, and a 3 mile run. The swim starts and ends on the beach on the north side of Lake Pflugerville. The bike course is on flat and rolling hills on county roads with little traffic. The run is on the crushed granite trail around Lake Pflugerville.
Intermediate Distance: The intermediate distance uses the same course as the Sprint, but all distances are doubled. The swim is 2 loops around the 500 meter course, with a short run across the beach in between. The bike and run are 2 loops each.

Water Temperature & Quality

The water temperature will be around 80-84 degrees, so the swim will not be wetsuit legal. Information regarding the water temperature will be posted in the news section of this website as the event date approaches.

Finish Line Medical Tent- Presented by Medicine In Motion

The finish line medical tent is staffed by Dr. Martha Pyron who is board certified in Family Practice and Sports Medicine, Licensed Athletic Trainers who are trained to provide musculoskeletal injury assessment and first aid, and other nurses and medical assistants who are able to provide all race participants with excellent care on site. The medical tent is and supplied to treat common triathlon related injuries and illness, and to begin stabilization procedures for more severe problems. Any race participant who requests assistance will be evaluated in the medical tent and treated based on event protocols for athlete medical care. The medical team may authorize transportation to a nearby hospital in case of serious injury or illness, but will likely be able to manage any medical need an athlete will have including stitches, splints for injury, and bandages.

Weather Contingency Plan

In the event of foul weather, the start time of this event may be delayed by up to 1 hour. Should the weather conditions be unsafe for the swim, this event will be changed to a bike-run duathlon event distances equal to the triathlons. The duathlon will use the same wave starts as the triathlon, but with at time trail start format. If the weather makes it too dangerous for cycling, the event will become a 3 mile run.

Race Rules

This event will use USA Triathlon Age Group rules.
