The Upper Midwest’s newest open water swim event: The Zorbaz Gull Lake Challenge

Date: Saturday, June 14, 2014

We are happy to announce a new swim race in the upper Midwest - the Zorbaz Gull Lake Challenge. The race is located in the heart of Minnesota’s premier vacation destination, the Brainerd Lakes Area. Swimmers will be swimming in Lake Margaret, which is part of Minnesota’s exclusive Gull Lake Chain of Lakes.

This race is a sister race to the very popular Point to LaPointe swim race in Bayfield and is also being...

promoted in conjunction with Gear West, Lakes Area Mulitsport, and the organizers of the Brew House Triathlon. It is geared for swimmers and triathletes of all levels, as it offer the following options for race distances:

2.4 mile individual swim

1 mile individual swim

2 person relay (1.4 mil leg and 1 mile leg)

We did our best to make sure that this race does not conflict with any major triathlon, swimming or running event in Minnesota. It is the perfect warm-up event for triathletes training for any distance event and especially any of the 2014 Ironman races.

In addition being a beautiful lake to swim in (medium sized and sheltered), the race concludes at Zorbaz, which is known to all vacationers as one of the hottest entertainment spots on lakes across Minnesota. The entertainment for family/spectator during the race and for everyone afterward promises to be epic.

Early registration is until April 15th, so register now to insure you discount: http://zorbazgulllakechallenge.itsyourrace.com/event.aspx?id=666
