HPC Monday Night Mini-Triathlon Series

The High Peaks Cyclery Monday Night Mini-Tri Series is a fun and approachable sprint triathlon series that happens right in downtown Lake Placid and is in its 42nd year for 2026. The triathlon consists of a 400-yard swim, a 12-mile bike, and a 3-mile run. Whether permitted, the series runs for 8 consecutive Mondays throughout each summer. The races are designed to be fun for the expert and beginner triathletes alike.

CAUTION!!!

Triathlons are inherently dangerous. We ask that you please follow all New York State rules of the road. You are subject to all traffic laws and are expected to ride single file as close to the right shoulder of the road as is safe. We will have course marshals out at either end of Northwood School Road to watch for traffic. If they ask you to stop, you must stop! Runners should run against traffic.
