Where: The Columbia Association, The Supreme Sports Club, 7080 Deepage Drive, Columbia, MD.

Why non-competitive? The main reason this indoor triathlon is non-competitive is because of the difficulty in accurately tracking and comparing performance between ~30 different spin bikes due to the inherent variablity between bikes. To make it competitive would be meaningless, so instead, we made it Fun and Challenging by providing a simulated race course profile with a voice-over instruction for the bike segment!
