Daybreak is this Saturday! Not sure exactly when registration closes, but you'll need to act fast if you want a last-minute spot!
Andrew Hall perhaps said it best in this interview from 2019: "Daybreak brings out the kid in me. The venue makes you feel like you are playing sports in your neighborhood."
The Olympic distance is serving as the 2021 State Champs race, but is open to all abilities and experience levels. Everyone is 100% welcome! If you prefer, there's also a sprint distance option available.
*****Special Announcement*****
In conjunction with RD's Perry Hacker and Dan Aamodt, we've got some cool things brewing for anyone who completes "The Double" of Daybreak and East Canyon back to back weeks. Utah Tri Buzz will be making it rain with awards, praise & recognition for your efforts. Support the local scene!
DAYBREAK OLYMPIC

“It is not the critic who counts; not the wo/man who points out how the strong wo/man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the wo/man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends her/himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if s/he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that her/his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt
