RESULTS – 2012 Polson Triathlon
We had an awesome first year race and made some great memories. Thanks to all the racers who survived a tough course, to the sponsors who made the event possible, and especially to all the volunteers who spent so much many hours to pull it off in grand style. It was pretty special for me to finally see the dream come true right here in my home town.

Welcome to the Polson Triathlon –
For many years, the Montana multi-sport community has anticipated the ultimate regional triathlon event in Polson. Last year, that dream became a reality and we are now preparing for a second round in 2013. Our venue is nestled on the pristine shore of Flathead Lake with the towering peaks of the Mission Mountains providing a breathtaking backdrop. We have an energized community of local athletes and volunteers who promise to treat all participants to a premier event, complete with all of those athlete friendly features and some unexpected perks you don’t see every weekend. We also hope to attract a large field with a nice mix of nervous beginners, endorphin-loving enthusiasts, and serious competitors.
Please plan to come join us for the debut edition of a really special event.
