We are planning to use the <br />same courses as we did in 2017 for the Ellensburg Triathlon, that will include an Olympic distance and Sprint course. <br />Our participants love the bike course. We also will have the Carey Lakes Run, which is a 5k and 10k run, within the <br />park. <br />Event Dates <br />Saturday, July 14 2018 <br />• <br />Ellensburg Triathlon <br />Carey Lake 5K and 10K Runs <br />• Both starting at 8am at Irene Rinehart Park <br />Here are the relevant course details for the Ellensburg Triathlons. The bike course exits from Irene Rinehart park <br />turning right onto Umptanum Rd, right onto Manatash Road and will follow Manatash to the Sprint (just before Kittitas <br />Reclamation District Road) or Olympic turn around (just before the gravel) as appropriate and return the same way. <br />The Sprint is just over twelve miles and the Olympic is 24.8. The run stays within the park area. <br />Links to the maps for the Ellensburg Triathlon are as follows: <br />Olympic <br />Swim (1 mile): http:llwww.mapmVfitness.com/routes/view/957437795 <br />Bike (24.8 miles): http:/twww.i-napmlfjtness.com/routes/view/956823491 <br />Run (10K): http:l/www.rnapmy itness.com/routes/view/956072145 <br />Sprint <br />Swim (.25 miles): hti :lNvww.ma myfTtness.com/routes/view/956072145 <br />Bike (12.3 miles): litt2:1/www,mapmvfitness.com/routes/view/956080811 <br />Run (5K): iitt ://www.ma m fitness.com/routes/view/957208841 <br />Assuming approval from the County Board of Commissioners, the race will occur as follows: <br />Ellensburg Triathlons <br />• Swim begins at 8:OOam in Irene Rinehart Pond for the Olympic with an estimated swim time of 20-60 minutes. <br />• Using the New Bike Course, please see description above.

The <br />following information is provided for the county health office in anticipation of standard queries I receive from them <br />each year: <br />• Water for aid stations will be from the city water supply, not an out-of-town well. We have used the water at the <br />fairgrounds in the past and would like to do that again this year. <br />• There will be 4 port -o -lets at Irene Rinehart Park in addition to the restrooms there. <br />In the past it was requested that I also include the following information in our letter: <br />• Penal Bond/Bond of Indemnity <br />The bike portion of this event are held on the local roads and do not cause any damage to the these roads. I <br />would like to request the board grant a waiver to the Penal Bond requirement. Our team works hard to make <br />sure any that areas utilized by these events are left better than when the event started, and have not had any <br />problems in years past with these events. <br />• Waiver to the County Noise Ordinance <br />Since the event begins at 8, 1 request the ability to use a bullhorn as needed to ensure the safety of all <br />participants. <br />thank you for your consideration. If you have any questions, or need more information, please do not hesitate to <br />make contact with me by phone or email (see below). I ask that you respond by either standard mail or by email so <br />that I can proceed accordingly and I thank you in anticipation. <br />If you have any questions, please contact me (see contact information below). <br />Sincerely, <br />Deanna Muller <br />BuDu Racing, LLC Deanna BuDuRa in .cam / 206/920-3983 <br />
