Out of curiosity, is there any weekly group meet-up or a small social bubble that you meet to encourage each other to keep up with the training regardless the level of experiences?

Curious WHY it’s called the Breakup Triathlon? Alaska.org tells us.![]()

“Alaska’s year really begins here— [April-May] when daylight starts to last past bedtime and temperatures don’t freeze at night. The snow melts and the ground thaws.” The rivers, now ice roadways, begin to literally break apart!![]()

HI! My name is Triny Willerton, I was hit by a careless driver in 2018 while riding my bike. I was almost killed and I decided to do everything I could to help prevent what happened to me from happening to others. I founded It Could Be Me a non profit with a mission to make roads safe for everyone. Last year we joined a coalition with Vision Zero and Families for Safe Streets to request congressional support for the Zero Traffic Deaths Resolution. We have a virtual meeting with Senator Dan Sullivan next week and we need constituents. The meetings take 30 minutes and it is a great opportunity to share your experience and make a difference. If you would like to help please email me: itcouldbeme2019@gmail.com or reply to this post. Thank you so much!
I participated in an Anchorage triathlon in 1982 or 83. ![]()
Does anyone know the name of that race?

The second triathlon in our series is located in the city of North Pole! North Pole is a small Alaskan city, near Fairbanks. It's known for its year-round Christmas decorations, including candy cane–striped street lights. Santa Claus House is a Christmas store with walls covered in children’s letters to Santa and a huge Santa statue outside. Streets have names like Kris Kringle Drive and Mistletoe Lane. Nearby, the Chena Lake Recreation Area has a beach, nature trails and picnic areas.![]()

The North Pole Triathlon is an Olympic distance race held in and around the beautiful Chena Lake Recreation Area. The area includes a 260-acre lake and is surrounded by spruce trees. ![]()

It is an opportunity to swim 1500 meters in some of the best open water in the region and to bike 40K (26 miles) through a great community. The 10K (6.2 mile) run will be on a combination of paved and gravel trails within the Chena Lake Recreation Area. We hope you will agree this event is something locals can be proud of in the world of triathlons. It is also a great introduction for anyone who has never swam in an open water race and wants to give it a try. A wetsuit is HIGHLY recommended! ![]()
![]()
SWIM: Water temperatures at Chena Lakes are on the cool side (55 to 65 degrees) so it is advised to bring a wetsuit. USAT, allows wetsuits for water temperature at or below 78 degrees F. The swim begins with a mass start along the shore. The course will be marked with large orange floats at each corner. ![]()

BIKE: The bike course is 40 km on public roads and relatively flat.![]()

Breakup Triathlon | Sunday, May 8, 2022 | Sprint Distance ![]()

UPDATE: only 3 spots remain ![]()

The race was named after Alaska's spring when the ice and snow that has accumulated over the winter months starts to melt away. As the ice thaws, the days become longer, temperatures grow warmer, and ice over the rivers begins to give way to the currents of the Chena River and surrounding rivers. The ice breaks up into chunks and floats lazily downstream. This is what we call the Breakup season.![]()
