Individual registration usually opens around the middle of February.

Team registration opens on April 15th.

The swim at this race is like none other in Saskatchewan! Waskesiu Lake is clear and deep. The average temperature of the lake in August is 18C and can vary from calm to slightly wavy.

IMPORTANT: The swim changed a few years ago to a two-loop course: Swim Map

This 62.2km bike is two loops, the first with a short out-and-back. The course is mostly on Highway 264, a quiet road with wide shoulders. It is not uncommon to spot an elk along the road, hopefully not when going down one of the large hills! The bike zips through downtown Waskesiu where friends and family can watch and cheer. Here is the map and more info!

The run is an out-and-back beside the beautiful Waskesiu Lake. It is mostly pavement with a small gravel/off-road section. Most of the run is on the shoulder of the highway, so caution is necessary for runners especially when passing. The backdrop of the northern Saskatchewan Boreal forest makes this 13-km run feel like a walk in the park! Actually, there are a few hills so if you're expecting a flat prairie run, you'll be in for a surprise!
Here is the map and more info!

The transition from swim to bike has a short run up the beach and a few stairs. The transition is grassy and has lots of space for your transition gear. Getting into the transition area is easy, but when leaving, make sure you pay attention to volunteers and race officials. Also, make sure you put on your helmet before unracking your bike!

A kids race has become a highlight for kids, ages 6 to 14, to start out in the wonderful sport of triathlon. The registration for the kids race opens on April 15th. See the Registration page for the link to register.

Generally, the events will occur as follows:

KIDS RACE ON SATURDAY AT 2:00
This is a SWIM / RUN for kids on Saturday afternoon. This will be a free race, just need a STAC or a one day membership. Register at 1:00 and will start at 2:00. Usually the distances and start times look like this.

These times are subject to change, so watch the website in the weeks before the race weekend.

Bring the kids out and cheer them on! If lake is too rough to swim it will be a run for the kids!

Frank Dunn Rollover Policy:

This is our Rollover Policy for our event now and in the future. We will be offering a full rollover before May 31st (less $25.00 administration fee). Requests for a rollover must come from the affected competitor (not a friend or a spouse), it must be in writing or by email, we will not accept a phone message request. We will confirm the rollover of your entry fee to the next year, and explain the procedure to follow. Please email info@frankdunntriathlon.ca.

Please understand that it is not the intention of the organizing committee to profit from this policy, rather to continue to offer a consistent quality of event at a reasonable cost. We consider all of our competitors to be friends and as such, we hate to say no.

Please remember that no rollovers will be accepted after June 1st, regardless of the reason. There are absolutely no exceptions. We will no longer be issuing refunds regardless of the reason or time of year, and always you will not be able to sell or transfer your entry to another competitor.

In part we have entry limitations placed on us from Prince Albert National Park, we anticipate a 20% dropout rate and a 10% no show rate, this enables us to meet our entry limit and still field a full race.

To request a rollover, send me a letter or email before May 31st, stating that you will not be competing and that you’d like to take advantage of the rollover option. You will be sent a rollover confirmation along with instructions on what to do for registration the following year.

REMEMBER
*NO TRANSFERS*
**SELLING OF RACE ENTRY PROHIBITED**
