Swim Cancelled for Woodforest Bank TRI on May 11

By  | 

Over the last few days, The Woodlands and surrounding areas have experienced a large amount of rainfall, causing unfavorable swim conditions in Lake Woodlands. Therefore, the swim portion of The Woodforest Bank TRI has been cancelled.

At this time, the race format has shifted to a duathlon consisting of a 1 mile run, 12.8 mile bike course and 5K run. The race will begin at 7 a.m. at Northshore Park.

In addition to these changes, staff has developed detailed plans and alternative options for Race Day morning in the event of inclement weather, and will be prepared to execute these as needed. All plans are tentative and subject to change at any time based on weather forecasts and the potential for flooding conditions, which could potentially impact the availability of resources needed to ensure the safety of the event, such as Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and standby EMS.

Due to scheduling and staffing, the race will not be rescheduled to a later date. With current forecasted conditions, all post-race activities including live music, food/beverages and awards have been relocated to the
Event Center (Ice Rink) located at 2005 Lake Robbins Drive. Participants are invited to attend upon finishing the race.

Additional information will be distributed as determinations are made. Please feel free to contact races@thewoodlandstownship-tx.gov with any questions.
