From the Organizer
Peasantman is brought to you by First Knight Racing - managed by certified USAT Race Director/Official Joe McMahon. It's an officially sanctioned USA Triathlon event that takes place on the third Sunday of every August at Indian Pines Park in Penn Yan, right in the heart of the beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York.
Our own 'Steel Distances' are just slightly longer than traditional triathlon distances, due to a longer bike course.
Since 2013, Peasantman has contributed over $44,000 to several organizations in the Penn Yan area. Most of these organizations are present on race day helping to bring you this event!

About These Sports
This race spans more than one sport — here’s a guide to each, so you can understand what’s involved and decide if it’s the right fit. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer’s event page.
Triathlon
Swim, bike, run — back to back. The sprint distance makes it far more accessible than most people think. Three sports in one race means three movements to train and race day never gets monotonous.
Duathlon
Run, bike, run. The multi-sport format without the swim. Two disciplines, one race — a great bridge between running and triathlon.
