COURSE
Bear Lake Brawl Course
Half Distance - The Half Distance is a 1.2 Mile swim in beautiful blue Bear Lake. This will be a clockwise triangle pattern. The Bike Course does a complete 51 Mile clockwise loop around Bear Lake with views of the lake always on your right shoulder. The Run Course is a 13.1 Mile out and back on farm roads that are 100% paved. Great views of this rural community.
Sprint and Olympic Distance - Both of these courses do a clockwise triangle swim in beautiful blue Bear Lake however seeing their triangle is 750Meters the Olympic will swim the triangle twice. We are pleased that the Bike Course of these distances will be renewed to their old distance and course. They will be out and back on the East side of the lake. Olympic will go 12.4 Miles and turn around for a total of 24.8 Miles and the Sprint will go 6.2 Miles and turn around for a total of 12.4 Miles. The Run Course is an Out and Back course primarily in the park. No longer will the run course go on the highway. The Olympic Course is two times of the Sprint Course. The views are scenic and safe with some views of the lake as well as trees overhead much of it.

Road Signage Information for 2014
Aid Stations
Road Signage Information for 2014
1. Colors In 2014 On Hill Events will be using colors for the Bear Lake Brawl Triathlon to help show transition areas. Blue for Swim. Green for Bike. Red for Run. If any of the course overlaps other areas of the course you will see either a colored sign or a colored ribbon to help direct you.
2. Many signs for turns and turn arounds will have volunteers directing racers. Not every turn can have a volunteer so many of the signs will be large bright signs. Our Bike and Run Course Inspectors will drive and verify all signs and volunteers one hour prior to starting the races. Essential signs will be hammered with a fence post into the ground.
3. Painted Streets for all turns and turn arounds. We will mark every mile with paint on bike and run. Look for a Dash and number on course (Example -15). Spray Chalk for all Transition Areas (Know the Transition Area in case rain Sprays off the chalk).
4. Volunteers at all Turn Arounds and protecting the transition area
5. Banner Signs for all Transition Areas.
6. More Fencing in the Transition Area and Half Run near Transition Area to protect against spectators.
7. Spectator Designated Areas. Tell your spectators your anticipated transitions to keep them out of the primary spectator area (near finish) until they know you will be in. It is not necessary to have spectators in the Spectator Finish Area until they know their runner is coming in.
