Course Details
THIS IS A SMAPLE OF WHAT OUR RACE TRADIONALLY LOOKS LIKE. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO USE IT AS AN EXMAPLE OF HOW LONG YOUR TRIAHTLON SHOULD BE AND HOW YOU COULD SET UP YOUR VIRTUAL RACE FOR THE MOST AUTHENTIC RACE FEEL. BUT WE WILL NOT HAVE THE COUSE SET UP DURING THE 2021 RACE YEAR SINCE IT WILL BE HELD VIRTUALLY.
The Beaver Freezer Triathlon is a sprint triathlon consisting of a 500yd swim, 12 mile bike, and 3.1 mile run. The course includes a swim in the Dixon Recreation Center pool located on the Oregon State University campus. The transition area is in the Dixon Parking lot on 26th street. The bike ride takes you through some of the historic college district and out through the country roads of Corvallis. With a few gentle hills, this ride is PERFECT for beginners and FAST for experienced athletes. The run is a fun 3 loop course around the heart of the OSU campus, finishing in the middle of the Memorial Union Quad.

RUN 3.1 miles
The run is around the heart of the Oregon State Campus among the beautiful brick buildings and old growth trees. Participants will enjoy a 3 1/4 loop course where their spectators can see and cheer them on multiple times before heading to the finish. The course is mostly flat and fast with one hill (you get to conquer it 3 times). Participants will pass the Memorial Union 4 times (1st time as racers leave transition, and 3 more times for each of the 3 laps).
From transition, participants will head up the walking path to Jefferson and begin lap 1. They will head north on 26th street, east on Campus Way, south on 15th street and west on Jefferson Way. On the last 1/4 of a lap on 26th, racers will take a sharp right turn into the Student Memorial Union Quad, finishing just beyond the center!
