About Kinetic Triathlon Festival
The Kinetic Triathlon Festival features the Mid-Atlantic’s first Long Course race of the season along with an Olympic on Saturday and a Sprint on Sunday. Staged out of beautiful Lake Anna State Park, this race features a sandy beach start, a crisp (mid 60’s) freshwater swim, rolling country roads for the bike and a run course that stays completely within the State Park. The race is amazing for so many reasons, but the best part is the park itself. Banked stadium style seating overlooks the swim start/finish, run course and finish line. Bring the family as the park features miles of trails, a playground, swimming beach and visitors center featuring a “gold mine”. Outside the park you can relax post race at the Lake Anna Winery or the Coyote Hole Cider Works. Be sure to race with friends and make some new ones at the Kinetic Triathlon Festival!

Race Comments
Be part of the great experience. Here are some comments from last year’s Kinetic Triathlon Festival race.

"Fantastic racing experience, beautiful course, everything was well marked and easy to follow. The atmosphere was great and I really love being part of such an amazing and supportive community." bib# – 98 |

"This was my first 70.3 triathlon. I was not adequately prepared for the open water swim. I learned the hard way that hours of swimming in the pool is not the same as a mile swim in a rough lake. Fortunately, I was able to make it through the swim without dropping out (or drowning) but it took me over an hour to get through it. The cheerful enthusiasm of the race workers helped me keep from being discouraged for the bike and run legs, ultimately enabling me to finish." bib# – 165 |

"It was my first tri ever so I didn’t know what to expect. Was a bit nervous about not knowing where to go (registration, transitions, biking on the road, etc). To my surprise, everything was so well organized and efficient that I never got “lost” and I had a great experience overall! Thanks!" bib# – 517 |

Swim Start
Time Trial Swim Start: Kinetic Multisports races utilize a time trial swim start. We'll start two (2) athletes at a time every few seconds. Athletes line up based on swim and overall finish times, faster up front, slower in the back to create a smoother race for everyone.
Elite Box Start: In conjunction with our time trial swim starts we are excited to announce the official addition of the Elite Box Start at select races. If you are in contention to get Top 20 Overall Male/Female or just want to race up front, this is for you. Simply work your way to the front of the swim start area on race day. We'll get you lined up and started first, then athletes two at time every few seconds thereafter. The Elite Box Start concept worked well at many races last year and we are excited to add this feature to more races.
