Welcome Triathlon Race Fans, to the 2025 Hammerhead Olympic & Sprint Distance Triathlon! The HOT event is held at the beautiful Camp Blanding Military Reservation, which is about 30 miles Southwest of Jacksonville. Aquabike available in both Sprint and Olympic distances.

RACE DAY SCHEDULE:

7:15am - Transition Closes FOR ALL ATHLETES, Sprint and Olympic
7:30am - First Wave Start

The swim will be in Kingsley Lake which is one of the state’s pristine waterways (no salt water and no sharks!) and usually very smooth for a fast race. The bike course will be entirely within Camp Blanding with little, if any, traffic, but with a few rolling hills (two loops – one loop for the Sprint distance). The run will be a flat out and back (with little shade) but with plenty of aid stations.
