Harris Lake Reverse Sprint & Olympic Triathlon

This is a multisport event to remember with your choice of REVERSE sprint or Olympic triathlon or aquabike plus a crazy fun party, brought to you by Humans of Steel Racing, a subsidiary of The Endurance Edge, a women-owned Triangle business. Let's create multisport memories for the entire family. Everyone shares a finish line and gets to celebrate their accomplishment! It will not only challenge you, but be super fun!

Event Highlights

  • Beginner Friendly: In fact, if this is your FIRST race, we have a special, handmade (huge) plaque for you to have your picture taken with.
  • Location: Held at Harris Lake County Park in New Hill, NC, convenient to Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Fuquay Varina, and Holly Springs.
  • Course Details: You'll run through single track trails, ride through Holly Springs, then swim in Harris Lake (yes, in that order...since we like to be different...we're humans of steel, after all!).
  • USAT Sanctioned: As of 2024, Sprint AND Olympic course, high school athlete friendly, earning USAT points for rankings. You can view the rules here.
