Outback Events is proud to present the 8th Annual Sylvan Lake Half Iron Triathlon.

Outback Events is proud to present the 8th Annual Sylvan Lake Half Iron Triathlon and we are looking forward to welcoming back those who have raced with us before and those who will be first time racers with us. Located half way between Calgary and Edmonton Sylvan Lake welcomes over 1.5 million visitors a year from around Alberta. 

The race course consists of a 2km swim, 90km bike and 21km run. The open water swim consists of a one course in Sylvan Lake that is described as the nicest lake in Alberta.  A rolling bike course of one loop past rural Alberta farms with some short climbs and fast descents awaits athletes.

The run course is out Lakeshore Drive along the lake and then out along the lakeside cottages with the lake there to tease you in the heat of the day.  The course will be well supported with volunteers and aid.

The race finishes beside the lake in one of Canada's most beautiful venues to race.  Post race awards and BBQ lunch for athletes and family to follow after the event is over. 

The race is in its 8th year and has hosted some great triathletes since 2004 including Craig Walton, Keiran Doe, Emma Snowsill, Matt Seeley, Brian Rhodes and Canadians Scott Curry, Marilyn McDonald, Angela Naeth, and past Persona Oliver Half Iron Winner Kyle Marcotte.
