Go Buggy at The ChesapeakeMan Endurance Festival
The TriColumbia ChesapeakeMan Endurance Festival has a distance for you. If you're looking for a sprint level  race to end your season of training, or simply looking for a fun way to fill your time while cheering on a friend or family member participating in the ChesapeakeMan Ultra, AquaVelo, or Skipjack 75.2, TriColumbia's brand new Bugeye Sprint is for you!
The Bugeye brings the total events for the ChesapeakeMan Endurance Festival to four, one for every level of ability. Triathlon Magazine's March 2010 issue named the ChesapeakeMan Ultra Distance event a "140.6 Best Race," and The Ultra Distance event is the USAT Mid  Atlantic Championship Ultra Distance race. Utilizing portions of TriColumbia's world-renown Ironman 70.3 EagleMan course, the festival takes place on September 24th, when the summer temperatures are easing.
All events are still open for registration; so don't miss this gem of an endurance festival, and come experience what everyone is raving about!
