Wolfman Triathlon and Trail Runs
White Lake, WI | Saturday, September 12, 2026TriathlonRegistration Open
The Wolfman Triathlon is one of Wisconsin’s original off-road triathlons. Held in the rugged Northwoods, this multi-discipline race includes: A 3-mile Class II whitewater paddle A 13-mile technical mountain bike ride A 3.75-mile rugged trail run Racers start in staggered 30-second intervals beginning at 8:00 AM. Triathlon Course Overview Paddle (3 miles) Racers launch their kayaks or canoes onto a rocky, scenic Class II section of the Wolf River just north of Langlade, WI. This exhilarating 3-mile whitewater paddle finishes at the DNR landing in Langlade. Bike (13 miles) After pulling boats ashore, racers sprint to their bikes and head east on Highway 64 before entering the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The course continues through the Nicolet Roche trail system—an extensive network of technical singletrack with plenty of climbs, descents, and challenges. The segment finishes near the Gardner Dam Adventure Base. Run (3.75 miles) The trail run begins with a bridge crossing over the Wolf River, winding along the riverbank and through lush forest trails. Expect steep climbs, dense ferns, and a final river crossing (yes, you'll get wet!) before reaching the finish line and legendary Wolfman After Party. Additional Race Divisions Tandem Teams Tandem teams race as a unit and must paddle together in the same boat. The bike and run legs are completed individually, and their times are combined. Note: If one team member fails to finish, the team is disqualified. Relay Teams Compete as a 3-person relay team, with one person handling each leg of the race. Fastest total combined time wins.
