Big Mack Sprint Triathlon

Coming in 2026, Trivium Racing introduces Big Mack Sprint Triathlon, a centrally located early-summer multisport event in Burlington, North Carolina. Held at Lake Cammack Park and Marina, this race offers athletes the rare opportunity to swim in a clean, protected lake that is typically closed to public swimming. Combined with quiet country roads for the bike and a shaded run through park trails, Big Mack delivers a calm, well-organized race experience in one of the most convenient locations in the Triad. Part of the Trivium Multisport Series , Big Mack is designed for a wide range of athletes—from those trying their first triathlon to experienced racers looking for a strong early-season effort.
