Triathletes in town this weekend!

Motorists are urged to keep a keen eye out for hundreds of triathletes this weekend when the Tupper Lake Chamber of Commerce brings its popular Tin Man Triathlon back to real life, after two years of virtual competitions.

Hundreds of triathletes and their families are expected to be in town to challenge themselves against the three legs of the event, which has a rich history here dating back to the early 1980s.

Swimmers will hit the water of Raquette Pond about 8a.m. Saturday and after strenuous bike and run pieces the triathletes will end back at the park by mid-day or thereafter Saturday.

Wendy Peroza as race director, working with dozens of volunteers, is expected to produce another banner event for the community.
