No it’s not a race on a watercraft with really big wheels! Essentially it’s the same as the long course, just without the run. It’s the swim, then through transition 1 and onto the bike and finishing off when the athlete passes into transition 2.
Maybe you are suffering from an injury that requires non-impact activity, maybe you just don’t like to run or maybe you have another event on the horizon and don’t want to wear yourself out. With the addition of Aquabike to Husky Long Course you can now be part of the action.
This year, Aquabike participants will complete their event at the timing mat in transition at the end of the bike leg. You can choose whether or not to run up the finish chute. Finisher medal collection details will be announced on the day.
