Event Information
Welcome to the Scenic Challenge!
The Coeur d'Alene Triathlon, Duathlon, and Sprint is one of the most scenic races in the Pacific Northwest. This year marks the 43nd year of the race, which will be held Saturday, July 31, 2027.
Athletes participating in our traditional Olympic distance (1.5K swim) will board one of the beautiful Coeur d'Alene cruise ships and enter the water out in the bay and swim back to the sandy beach shoreline of one of the city's most iconic parks.
The "Sprint Distance Triathlon" has become a popular staple of our race and will take off from the city park beach one hour after the Olympic race begins. The Scenic Sprint consists of a 500-meter swim, a 13-mile bike ride, and a 3.1-mile (5K) run. The sprint course will have women's and men-specific wave starts to give novice triathletes a sense of confidence and safety.
The bike course follows the shoreline on Coeur d'Alene Lake Drive. For Olympic-distance triathlon and Duathlon riders going the full 40K, the race leads to Mullan Trail Road for a challenging uphill course.
The run courses travel north along the North Idaho Centennial Trail and the Spokane River. There are two turnaround points along the Centennial Trail: the 5K turnaround is in front of the University of Idaho/LCSC Harbor Center, and the 10K turnaround is on the Centennial Trail under the Seltice Way overpass. The course ends at the finish line in Coeur d'Alene City Park at the Triathlon Village adjacent to Lake Coeur d'Alene and City Beach.
