Steamboat Triathlon Changes Hands
After two very successful seasons the Steamboat Triathlon has handed the reigns over to Without Limits Productions. The move takes place as the original creators of the Steamboat Triathlon sought to take the event to the next level, a one of a kind destination event. Without Limits Productions, Colorado’s largest multi-sport event company and founders of the Colorado Triathlon Tour, were the perfect match! To Without Limits the most important component of this event moving forward is community involvement and a lasting benefit to the surrounding businesses. “Steamboat has such a supportive and thriving community that our goal is for the citizens, business owners, and designated charity to feel that this is truly “their event” and take credit for its success. The Steamboat Triathlon wouldn’t be what it is today without their committed involvement” – Lance Panigutti, co-owner Without Limits Productions. In 2011 participants can expect the same gorgeous venue and intimate race environment, but with slightly longer distances. The current course of a 3/4m Swim, 22m Bike, and 4m Run, has been expanded to become a true Olympic Distance Event (1.5k Swim, 24.8m Bike, 6.2m Run).
To help local and front range athletes prepare a new event has been established for July 24th just 20 miles north of Lake Catamount, the Steamboat Lake Sprint Triathlon. This new event, featuring a 1/2m Swim, 12.4m Bike, and 3.1m Run, has breathtaking scenery in its own right, is very beginner friendly, and offers the perfect excuse for non local athletes to get away during the hot summer month of July!
The 2011 Olympic Distance Event will take place on August 28th, just one day after the Quiznos Pro Challenge departs on Stage 5 from downtown Steamboat, ensuring an action packed weekend of cycling and triathlon for all! Athletes and families arriving on Friday will be able to spectate the downtown finish of the Quiznos Pro Challenge Stage 4 (Avon to Steamboat), a truly once in a lifetime opportunity!
