MIGHTY NORTH FORK TRIATHLON
RACE DETAILS
Triathlon
SWIM: 500 Meters
BIKE: 7 Miles
RUN: 3.5 Miles
While this is a great event for everyone, it is a particularly great race for first-time triathletes. It is a beautiful course that is most-welcoming with a calm bay swim then a mostly flat, scenic bike course and an equally scenic run. Held in the heart of Long Island’s wine region, this event has something for athletes and spectators alike.
- Swag for all participants (guaranteed if you are registered by 5/20)
- Awards and amazing raffle prizes!
- Beautiful course through the quaint roads of Southold
- We bring the EVENT, you bring the POWER!
Note to racers:
We will be collecting donations for (CAST). CAST has been serving low-income individuals and families on the North Fork of Long Island since 1965).We invite you to bring non-perishable and personal care items for donation to CAST. Items will be collected at packet pick-up location(s) and on race day. All donations are appreciated!

Race Number Placement
Keep Your Race Number Clearly Visible!
For the best results with photo tagging and searching, the photographers need to clearly see your bib# when taking photos. This will greatly improve your name & Race/Bib# photo search results.
Extra body marking will take place right before the race, at the body marking flag!
Please have your bib# placed on:
1-both shoulders, & both leg side calves (both left and right sides)
2-on the front of your bike helmet
3-on your bike front tube closest to the handle bars, for easy side viewing
4-and on the front of your chest or abdomen, not on your back!
Again, make sure your bib# is clearly visible for the camera!
Your matching name and photos will be identified by your bib#!

RunSignUp has the ability to search for your photos by Bib# or Name. Try it, it’s easy.
The photos can also be found by going to your results page on RSU, and clicking on the small photo icon under your name. The bib# tagging is done automatically by google software and is not always perfect. It is being worked on by RSU, to make it better.
You can also manually add missing bib#’s yourself, so don’t hesitate to help when the software missed it!
Thank You To Our Sponsors.
