Finally, runners will find a welcome change of pace with a flat and fast run course that hugs the shores of beautiful Lake Winona, culminating at the historic Lake Park bandshell. Super enthusiastic volunteers and well-placed aid stations, typically every mile or so on the run course, ensure support for all participants, offering water, hydration drinks, and often other fueling options.

Trinona offers a range of distances to suit various abilities: the Olympic Triathlon (0.93-mile swim, 25.3-mile bike, 6.2-mile run), Sprint Triathlon (0.25-mile swim, 11-mile bike, 3.1-mile run), and a Duathlon (run/bike/run options, typically involving 2.1 or 3.1-mile run segments and an 11-mile bike). Additionally, Aquabike events and the Trinona Kids races provide options for all ages and interests. From the challenging climbs to the blissful lakeside run, Trinona promises an unforgettable journey through stunning landscapes, complete with custom finisher medals, commemorative T-shirts, and a vibrant community atmosphere.
