What's to Eat?
Nothing says "Let's Have a Good Time" like a good-old fashioned BBQ. It's the experience. It's the fun. Outdoor grilling just isn't a way to cook food - it's a social gathering that has brought people together for centuries and continues to do so the weekend of June 4! For the Central Ohio Multisport Festival Celebration, our good friends from Buckeye Boys BBQ will be firing up the grill to serve you your choice of hamburger, chicken or veggie burger!
Have a hot sandwich fresh off the grill, a side of your choice, chocolate milk or drink, listen to great music all the while celebrating your finish, sharing your race stories with a couple hundred of your fellow triathletes and duathletes.
