JUST ANNOUNCED! Pocomoke Triathlon

TCR Event Management is excited to announce the 2018 Pocomoke Triathlon on June 23, 2018!

This race, formerly known as the Tri The Beach race of the Lower Shore Family YMCA, has been reworked and re-branded by TCR Event Management, out of St Michaels, MD. This sprint distance event will take place at the Lower Shore Family YMCA’s grounds, located at 1900 Worcester Hwy, Pocomoke City, MD, on Saturday, June 23rd, 2018.

The race will entail a Sprint Triathlon (.5 mile swim, 14 mile bike, 3.1 mile run), as well as a kids triathlon (100 yard swim, 2 mile bike, 1 mile run). The swim will be in a freshwater pond, located behind the YMCA. After you are complete, you will travel out on to the roadways of Worcester County, with law enforcement assisting you at the intersections, to ensure a smooth and safe race. Complete the bike and then it’s on to our out-and-back 5k course, all before finishing up at the Lower Shore Family YMCA for a post-celebration meal and awards!!

Come out and compete against other local triathletes, or use the race as your first taste of triathlon. Many participants like our pond swim to build up their confidence and the roadways are flat flat FLAT!!!

Packet pickup will begin at 6:30am on Race Day and the Sprint Race begins at 8am. Bring the kids and the whole family and spend the rest of the day in Ocean City, Maryland (about 35 miles away) or explore the charming town of Pocomoke City!

Registration for this event is open and available HERE!

TYR Wetsuit Demo Day

Are you in the market for new wetsuit?  Or does your suit need an upgrade?

Sunday, April 9th is your opportunity to try the 2017 TYR Wetsuit collection on….AND go for a swim in them!

That’s right, we are taking over the Dorchester Family YMCA pool along with our representative from TYR, and letting you try the suits on and test them out.  While we had hoped that the Choptank River would be warm enough for a quick dip, it doesn’t look like the water temperatures will be safe for us to demo the suits outside.  We will have use of the pool from 11:00am – 2:00pm.  Light refreshments will be offered under the TriCycle and Run tent just outside the pool in the YMCA parking lot.  We will also bring some of our closeout swimskins and triathlon apparel for you to shop!

If you decide that one of the TYR suits is for you, Laura will be taking orders and payments right there at the YMCA.  Shipping options can be discussed in detail with her at the event.  SPECIAL DISCOUNTS offered for all participants in the event!

There is also an opportunity to join some of the local athletes in the area for a quick bike ride before the demo event begins.  For further details about the group ride or the demo event, please feel free to email Laura at info@tricycleandrun.com.

We are so excited to bring this event to you, our local triathlon community!  Stay tuned for more similar events in the near future!
