Bluff Land Triathlon is your challenge on the beautiful Root River and Magelssen Bluff trails.

New! Chip-timing will be used for all three legs of this Run – Bike – Hike. Register online to participate in the full triathlon or grab some friends and do a relay of the three activities. All segments start and end at Creekside Park in Rushford, Minnesota.

RUN 3.1 miles on the Root River Trail — follows Rush Creek and the Root River on an eastbound out-&-back route…

BIKE 15.5 miles on the Root River Trail — helmets required for this westbound, out-&-back, paved trail ride…

HIKE 2.1 miles on Magelssen Bluff — a 500-foot total ascent and the 290+ wooden steps up the Stair Climber Trail…but the lush summer hillside and views from the top are worth it!

Pricing for one event or the relay.

All proceeds support the Foundation for R-P Schools ~ Providing scholarships for R-P students to pursue post-secondary education.
