The TriWaco Triathlon returned to Waco Sunday, July 26, 2009, starting with a 1500-meter open water swim in the Brazos River followed by a mostly flat and fast 25-mile bike ride on country roads north and west of Waco. Finishing out the race is a hilly 10-kilometer run along the Brazos River that leads to the historic Waco Suspension Bridge. A less-challenging Sprint distance is offered for beginning triathlon competitors: a 400-meter swim in the Brazos River, a 12-mile bike ride along the same country roads, and a 5-kilometer run finishing on the Suspension Bridge. About 600 competitors were involved in this year's event. HOTARC provided radio communications along the course, including in the rescue boat on the water!
