LeadmanTri Bend, produced and presented by Life Time – The Healthy Way of Life Company (NYSE: LTM), returns to Bend, Ore. on Saturday, September 21, 2013. Voted the Best New Race of 2012 by Triathlete magazine, the LeadmanTri Bend features two race lengths: 250K and 125K. Since its inception in 2011, LeadmanTri has provided athletes with an ultra distance option that places more emphasis on the low impact cycle and swim stages, and less on the higher-impact run portion. Both professional and age group divisions are offered for all distances, as well as a relay category. Participants as well as families and friends can look forward to a post-race celebration at the finish in NorthWest Crossing including an all-day farmer’s market, Deschutes Brewery Beer Garden and live music. |

This year, LeadmanTri Bend updated its course for the 2013 race. The new course adds to the experience for participants, while showcasing the incredible scenery of Bend, Oregon. Changes include a new finishing line in the NorthWest Crossing neighborhood, a run course that takes place almost entirely on paved trails and ample spectator views. |
