The 2016 GWR Triathlon Half Iron Distance will be co-hosted by the Village of  Newton Falls, OH.  "Broad Street" Newton Falls will be the location of the finish and post race festivities as the 2016 event will be a point-to-point race beginning at West Branch State Park and finishing in the quaint, small town village streets of Newton Falls!   

The weekend of multisport activities will begin Saturday, June 11 with the SPRINT & OLYMPIC RACES,and then with late registration for the half-iron distance, course preview, race clinics, and a humble little expo with several vendors on site.  The Half-iron will take place Sunday, June 12 and will be featured as the only race on that day! The Half iron will begin at Transition #1/West Branch State Park Beach for 1.2 mile swim, and then take athletes through a 1 loop, 56 mile course which features a balance of smooth fast road and some rolling hills.  Transition #2 will be located on Broad Street in the heart of Newton Falls Village.  Athletes will then  do 2 loops through the flat streets of surrounding village streets.
