Join us for the Second Annual Crystal Lake Aquathon
We are happy to bring back the Crystal Lake Aquathon. This annual event will be returning to the ideal confines of Three Oaks Recreational Center in Crystal Lake, IL. As the only aquathon in the state of Illinois, this race will offer 3 timed options:
- Sprint Distance (500m swim, 5k run)
- Olympic Distance (1 mile swim, 10k run)
- 2 Mile Swim
The swim portion takes place in a modified quarry (swim around 3 islands!) while the run is on a combination of trail, sand, and pavement (and even a bridge!).
Come for the race, stay for the fun at the awards ceremony/after-party hosted by The Quarry Cable Park. Awards will be given to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in each age group for female and male. All participants will be given a free raffle ticket to win great items. Last place finishers receive a special prize too! There will be much to celebrate at this event. Stay after to enjoy all that Three Oaks has to offer: swimming, sailboat and paddle board rentals, scuba diving, children's playground/splash park, volleyball, fishing, and fun in the sun! All proceeds from the race benefit Girls on the Run of Northwest Illinois.
