Nat Greene's Revenge Triathlons and Duathlon

Nat Greene’s Revenge is North Carolina’s premier fall triathlon, duathlon, and aquabike event, offering athletes a unique chance to race both on-road and off-road multisport courses—all in one morning. Held at the scenic Lake Brandt Marina in Greensboro, NC, this race delivers a dynamic and inclusive experience for all types of endurance athletes, from first-timers to seasoned competitors. New for 2026, all racing will take place in the morning, allowing for a smooth, unified race schedule and more time to connect with fellow athletes post-race.

Race options

• On-Road Triathlon: 800m swim, 12.5-mile road bike, 3.25-mile run
• On-Road Duathlon: 2-mile run, 12.5-mile road bike, 3.25-mile run
• On-Road Aquabike: 800m swim, 12.5-mile road bike
• Off-Road Triathlon: 800m swim, 14.5-mile mountain bike, 5K trail run

Lake Brandt is typically around 76°F in early October, which means we anticipate the race will be wetsuit legal, falling within the USA Triathlon-approved range (60.7°F to 78.0°F). Athletes should come prepared to race in wetsuit-permitted conditions, though the final temperature will be announced closer to race day.

Why race Nat Greene’s Revenge?

• Scenic courses through Lake Brandt and surrounding wooded trails
• Unique opportunity to choose between on-road and off-road triathlon formats
• Supportive, welcoming multisport community
• Well-marked courses and excellent volunteer support
• Custom race swag and memorable finisher medals

*If the trail is too wet to race on, participants will have option to switch to road race or off-road aquathon
