To whom it may concern:

As a member of Articulate Promotions, I would like to clear up any confusion regarding the Lake County Triathlon. The information regarding the last post was written by an uninformed member.

The same owner hosted the Lake Zurich Triathlon for the past 11 years in conjunction with the Lake Property Owners Association. The original owner sold the option of the race to Ram Racing, who has never hosted this event in the past. Unfortunately, Ram Racing and the Lake Property Owners Association could not agree on terms to hosting the event together in the traditional location.

Keeping in mind the best interest of all the community’s athletes, the Lake Property Owners Association hired a management company to co-host the Lake County Triathlon that would take place in the traditional event location on August 10th.

The only difference between this year’s race and the past 11 years of its history is the new management company and the race’s new name. The current hosts have cooperated with the event’s past hosts and are confident that this year’s race in Lake Zurich will be equally, if not more enjoyable than the race held in Lake Zurich over the past 10 years. The course, its logistics and all of its amenities are the same as years past. Ram Racing may own the name, The Lake Zurich Triathlon, but are not hosting their event in Lake Zurich. The classic location and traditions of the race are being upheld with the Lake County Triathlon.

Hundreds of athletes have already signed up to take part in this exciting event. Articulate Promotions is honored to keep the best interests of the village’s tradition as well as its athletes.

To those athletes taking part in the Big Foot Triathlon in Wauconda, or any other local race, Articulate Promotions wishes you nothing but the best of luck in hopes of beating all your personal records.
