140.6 miles: that is what you are up against. Start your challenge with a 2.4-mile swim in crystal-clear Versluis Lake. Then, jump on your bike for 112 miles through the rolling countryside of West Michigan. Finish up your day with a full marathon on the closed run course. Do all that and cross the Michigan Titanium finish line… and you’ve earned the right to call yourself a TITAN.
