Jack’s Generic Triathlon was founded by Jack Murray in 2003, at a time when he thought many triathlons had forgotten about the participants. Murray had the idea to put on a race with very little pomp and circumstance, yet at the core be a great race. It would be well organized, safe, good value, and of course, fun. It reminded him of the generic isle at the supermarket: It’s the same quality products, sometimes even better, but you don’t have to pay for the fancy packaging. And hence, the name Jack’s Generic Triathlon was born.
Event Distances:
- Sprint Triathlon – 500 meter Swim, 12.9 mile Bike, 5K Run
- Intermediate Triathlon – 1000 meter Swim, 25.8 mile Bike, 10K Run
- Intermediate Aquabike – 1000 meter Swim, 25.8 mile Bike
- Relay Intermediate Triathlon – 2 or 3 person teams split the intermediate distance triathlon’s swim, bike, and run.
