Weekend Trip to the South Holston River

     

           This past weekend I headed down to the South Holston River Lodge in Tennessee for a weekend fishing trip with my good friend Liam and our mothers'.  We arrived Friday night and settled into the riverside lodge and were quite impressed with the accommodations of the Mayfly cabin.  We spent Friday night getting our gear in order and were excited for our 6:30am wake up call.

Morgan's 37th Annual Triathlon

Morgan's Little Miami Triathlon 2016


Morgan’s Little Miami Triathlon Series is the largest triathlon of its type in the United States. The triathlon draws participants for each event from over 25 states.

  • Morgan’s Little Miami Triathlon is comprised of a 6 mile canoe, 5.5 mile run, and an 18 mile bike race, in that order. After the race, enjoy a hot meal and live music provided by The Grey Dogs at our after party! New this year is a 1/2 triathlon (read more about this below). 
  • Morgan’s is the oldest Triathlon of its' kind, being modeled one year after the first Iron Man Triathlon in Kona, Hawaii in 1979, with the canoe/kayak leg replacing the swim portion.
  • The event is made up of 2 person teams;your combined time is used in the results. We also offer an individual/kayak division. Awards are given to the top winners in each of these race divisions. 
  • The kayak division is designed for those who wish to race individually without a partner. Participants in the kayak division can bring their own or use a Morgan kayak. The price is the same.
  • In the walking division, you are still a two person team, but one or both participants can walk and be timed with other walkers. The walkers are only eligible for the Mini (Half) Triathlon due to time restraints. 
  • First heats for the spring event goes out at 8am; for the fall event the first heat is 9am.The 1/2 triathlon heats will begin at 10am this spring.
