1500 meter Swim, 24 mile Bike, 6.2 mile Run
The picturesque Lake Logan Conference Center is the home of one of the most beautiful venues in all of multi-sport racing. Here you will find wet suit legal swims in August, challenging and scenic bike courses, and runs on a tree canopied course along a rolling river. You will probably also see bald eagles flying overhead during your stay.
The Lake Logan International takes place on Sunday, August 8 and we invite you to join us as we celebrate 15 years of multi-sport racing at Lake Logan.
