From the 2012 POLE PEDAL PANT® Winter Triathlon race organizer:
The 23rd POLE PEDAL PANT® winter triathlon 2012 race remains at its last three year's venue in the Twin Cities, MN, held at Elm Creek Park Reserve, Maple Grove, MN, on March 10, 2012, Sat. Last year 2011, the participant number was a record high even with the very challenging weather. We are hopeful for another record high in 2012. Known to the Twin Cities’ winter silent sports communities, Elm Creek Park Reserve makes and guarantees snow, and the bike and run course will be a bit faster as well.
Elm Creek Park Reserve has been known as the heaven for xc skiers, snowboarders, bikers, single-track cyclists, runners, Disc Golfers, and family/group activities. The POLE PEDAL PANT® winter triathlon race, historically hosted at Giant's Ridge Resort (Biwabik, MN) in its initial 16 years, then re-organized by and moved to RAINBOW RESORT/WEST ITASCA RESORT near Waubun, MN for 3 years. To preserve this oldest and historical winter triathlon race event, the race organizer has been engaging with SILENT SPORTS FOUNDATION and Three Rivers Park District, and found its venue in 2009 -- Elm Creek Park Reserve in Maple Grove, a northwest suburb of the greater Twin Cities areas, MN.
The 2012 race date/time has been set on March 10, 2012, Saturday, at 9am, race package pickup starts at 7:30am. Online registration ends March 6, 2012, Tue., midnight. Race day registration ends at 8am. The official website for the 23rd POLE PEDAL PANT® winter triathlon race is www.rainbowresort.com/ppp or www.polepedalpant.com.
We are very grateful to the Three Rivers Park District/Elm Creek Park Reserve, all the sponsors and volunteers, and SILENT SPORTS FOUNDATION, a non-profit 501(c)(3) public organization which provides events and educational services to organizations and individuals in support of their pursuit in athletic sports and competitions, which leads to a healthy lifestyle in general public. All race proceeds go to benefit SILENT SPORTS FOUNDATION.
