When is it?
The race takes place on Sunday, August 5, 2012. All athletes must be checked in by 7:00 am.The first wave will start at 8:00 a.m..

Where is it?
The race takes place a few miles northeast of East Lansing, MI at Lake Lansing. Parking, registration, the transition area and the start/finish are located at Lake Lansing Park South, Haslett, Michigan 48840.

How much does it cost?
Prices are listed in the column to the left. We never charge processing fees, so when we say $50, we mean it.* You'll notice that prices increase as the race date nears. We would LOVE for every athlete to register for the lowest possible price by registering as early as possible; increasing prices allow us to compensate for the cost of securing timing services, race shirts, and food without knowing exact participation.

*All racers must be USA Triathlon members or purchase a one-day license for $12. If you are racing as a relay team, every member must have a USAT membership or one-day license. If you would like to purchase an annual membership, you can do so at usatriathlon.org for $45. (Youth memberships for athletes 17-years-old or younger are $15 for a year.)

What do I get?
Registration includes a technical t-shirt, swim cap, chip-timed results, post-race grub and guzzle, and the satisfaction of knowing you're better than the lazy schlubs that didn't wake up until 11 am on race day. Your entry fee also covers the permit fees, medical and police support, volunteer swag and food, and various other expenses that come with putting more than 300 athletes on public roads.

Along with those tangible benefits, we believe that every Endurance Evolution race offers something more than the typical endurance event in the way of customer service and professionalism. You can read more about our philosophies and our policies in our About Us section.

What do I win?
The overall male and female winners of the race receive an award plus free entry into next year's race. The top three individuals in each age group also receive an award.
