Why not give the Lake Max Triathlon a try August 10? The Lake Max Triathlon is on its way to becoming one of the finest sprint events in the Midwest. Spectacular Lake Maxinkuckee, the campus of historic Culver Academies and the beautiful community of Culver provide the ideal setting for competition and weekend fun. The course is a dream come true – a 400-meter swim around the Naval Pier, 10 miles of biking around the lake, and a five-kilometer run meandering through town. The distance is perfect for both experienced and novice racers! A live band, chef-prepared full-course meal, free massages, dry-fit shirts, and post-race energy drinks and beers will provide time to relax with friends along the lake after you cross the finish line. Come back for the day or spend the weekend. Many restaurant and overnight accommodations are listed on our website. All proceeds collected are donated to the local Lions, Kiwanis and Culver clubs to help with their humanitarian causes. For more information, call race director Dana Neer at (765) 252-7030.
