Rock the Quarry Triathlon and Mile Swim

Event Overview

The 11th Annual Rock the Quarry Triathlon and Mile Swim scheduled for Saturday, August 7, 2027, at the beautiful Fidler Pond Park located in Goshen, Indiana. Formerly a rock quarry, the pond will be open to the public for this sprint triathlon and mile swim, which is the only day of the year people are permitted to swim in the quarry. The quarry’s pristine water makes this event a special destination swim experience!

Sprint Triathlon

• Distance: This competitive but shorter sprint-distance race is great for both veteran and novice athletes.
• 500 Yard Swim: If you are comfortable swimming in open water, you will absolutely love this rare opportunity to swim in a quarry nestled in a picturesque setting. The course is a triangular counter-clockwise course beginning and ending at the same point.
• 15.8-Mile Bike: This is a flat, out-and-back course with both right and left turns. The first section extends through an industrial park and then into the country to Millersburg and back.
• 5K Run: This course is two laps (3.1 miles) on the flat aggregate track that encircles Fidler Pond. While on the course, runners are able to see the rest of the field, and there are plenty of great spots for spectators to cheer.

Mile Swim Event

• Open Water Swim: If you like to swim in open water, you will absolutely love this opportunity to swim in this pristine quarry. The deep, clean, clear water makes for quite the swim experience!
• Course Setup: The Mile Swim Event will be set up in a counter-clockwise course, tracing the perimeter of the pond.
• Timing: Swimmers will be chip-timed, and timing will end upon crossing a timing mat placed on land at water’s edge of the swim exit.
