The Black Squirrel Scurry is a paddling triathlon consisting of 3 phases: 2 mile kayak (or canoe) down the Prairie River, which averages about 2' depth. Phase 2 is a 17 mile road bike on pavement through Council Grounds State Park and rural roads north of Merrill. The route ends at the Merrill Area Rec Complex (MARC). Phase 3 is a 5k run on grass and crushed gravel trails around the MARC grounds and through Council Grounds State Park. One can enter as a solo athlete divided into age divisions, a relay of 2-3 people or a tandem in which you both start in a kayak or canoe, then both get out to bike then both run the course. You don't need to stay together, but it is more fun. There are discounts for participants 19 & under for solo or if both form a relay or tandem team. We are offering an eBike solo division and eBike Relay division. Race date is Saturday, July 27.
