From the Organizer
Kinship of the Perham Area is hosting the 21st annual Average Jo Triathlon on Saturday, June 27th at Paul Miller Park just north of Perham, MN. The Average Jo consists of a 1/3-mile swim in Little Pine Lake, then transition to your bike for a 12.5-mile bike ride, and end with a 3.1 mile run to Arvig Park.
There is a Team Event option on the registration page and with this option - the first team member to register pays the team fee. The other two members will also need to sign up and sign the waiver form and record their T-shirt size.
Through February, we are offering $10 off registration! Need some help training? Our partner, Branden Scheel Racing, has you covered with FREE training programs to get you ready for race day! Sign up today!

Three sports, one race — swim, bike, run in sequence, with transitions that are a discipline of their own.
Open water, open roads, and competition with yourself. Cross the finish line knowing what it took to get there.
Swim, bike, run — back to back. The sprint distance makes it far more accessible than most people think.
