Scofield Triathlon


Price, Utah

This triathlon is a great event, well run and put together by BBSC Endurance Sports. The triathlon takes place at nearly 8,000 feet. Half way through the swim I thought I had gained weight because it felt like my wetsuit was too tight and I couldn't breathe. Then I remembered the high elevation at which I was swimming. Who ever designed the finisher medals did a great job. I was glad I went out of my way to do this race.
This event is a well deserved part of the Best of the U.S. Series.
