70.3 Omaha

70.3 Omaha triathlon will kick off with a fast 1.2-mile swim in Lake Cunningham, a 390-acre reservoir. Spectators can spot their athlete by the surrounding trail as athletes undertake the single loop swim, entering and exiting near the boat ramp. Once out of the water, athletes will transition to the 56-mile bike course that takes athletes throughout Douglas County and the City of Omaha. The course climbs through rolling hills and scenic farmlands throughout Douglas County, offering challenging climbs, peaceful and fast descents, and wide-open rural sights and sounds, finishing near the Missouri River in downtown Omaha. The 13.1-mile two-loop run course will take athletes on paved trails along the Missouri River, followed by the famed Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge into Council Bluffs. Running past Tom Hanafan River’s Edge Park, athletes will run on the bridge back to Omaha before finishing near downtown.
