“Nobody ever anticipated something like this would happen, that is the most iconic one-day endurance event in the world and it’s been in Hawaii for 44 years, nobody anticipated it would go anywhere else there’s so much mystique to what has happened there over the years,” said Kevin Lewis, Director of the Greater Zion Convention and Tourism Office.
Athletes range in age from 18 to 79 years old, with all 50 U.S. states accounted for, with the most coming from Utah, California, Texas and Colorado. Millions of dollars in revenue will not only flow into the area, but be circulated among Washington County. The event on Saturday features a 2.4 mile swim, 122 mile bike and 26.2 mile run. Athletes will begin in the water at 6:15 a.m., with some of the final competitors expected to finish around 1 a.m., Sunday.
