Calling all athletes and volunteers.

This year's triathlon is a 38 mile, 4 1/2 hour race, in 3 elements. 6 mile kayak on the Hudson, 24 mile road bike along the Greenway Bike Route and 8 mile trail run through the Highlands. Each element takes 1 to 2 hours and all 3 elements begin and end at Dockside in Cold Spring. The triathlon is co-sponsored by the Philipstown Greenway Committee, Scenic Hudson and HHLT.

Registration fee is $60 per person for a solo entrant and $100 per team for a 3 person relay team. (For registration details and more information, go to www.hudsonhighlandstriathlon.org).

We are expecting as many as 100 participants and looking to find a group of enthusiastic volunteers to patrol the course on race day. Volunteers will need to report to Dockside by 9:00AM on Sunday September 28th. Training for the volunteers will be available before the race. Anyone interested in volunteering should contact Nat Prentice at natprentice@mac.com or by cell phone 845/661-8937.
