Experience the James River as you run, ride, and paddle your way through this scenic triathlon in beautiful Botetourt County, Virginia. The Buchanan Tri is a great triathlon for beginners but is also challenging for experienced triathletes. We're now in our 10th year! Buchanan is the gateway to amazing outdoor recreation experiences, including miles of national forest trails, the Appalachian Trail, the Blue Ridge Parkway/Peaks of Otter, and Natural Bridge State Park. Buchanan maintains its small-town charm, while having great amenities, including shopping, coffee shops, restaurants, and a new brewery! The Beaverdam Sunflower Festival will be going on a few miles down the road, so bring your family and spend the weekend with us!
Registration: $75 before 5/1; $90 5/1 to 8/5; $100 after 8/6
Start: Buchanan Town Park, 2 p.m. We recommend you transport your kayak to the Springwood Boat Landing on your way to the park. We will have volunteers at Springwood beginning at 11:30. Packet pick-up and on-site race registration will be at the park from noon to 1:30.
