Course Description: Swim
The participant will swim 18 lengths (9 laps) in the Boiling Springs Pool to complete the 0.5 miles. This portion of the race challenges all athletes because there are NO lane markers. It is like an open swim in a lake or ocean. Swimmers need to be aware of where the other athletes are while completing the swim. The transition area to the bike will be at the opposite side of the pool entrance, close to the street.

Follow to stop sign and turn right onto Petersburg Road and then an immediate left onto Red Tank Road. Follow Red Tank Road to Park Drive. Turn left onto Park Drive all the way into Mt. Holly Springs. At signal light turn right onto Rt. 34 going north (Holly Pike). Follow Rt. 34 north then turn right onto Bonnybrook Road.

Follow Petersburg Road to stop sign and then turn left onto E. Old York Road (Rt. 174). Follow E. Old York Road to Spring Meadows Park on your right.
