The canoe/Kayak trek on the Kawkawlin River starts at Castaways Bay City.

🛶Two person canoes will be provided as part of your race entry fee.
🛶Life jackets will be available and MUST be worn during the entire canoe and Kayak trip (feel free to use your own).
🛶The paddle will take a minimum of 35 minutes (West up river for 1.5 miles, U-turn east back to Castaways (buoys on your left at all times with the large yellow buoy as your U-turn).
🛶Plan on wearing shoes that could get wet.
🛶Canoes/kayaks are started in waves and leave when a wave is ready.
🛶To start a wave we’ll get you to settle on the river and sound the horn!
🛶Be smart, take your time and no dirty tricks. As much we like seeing them, our insurance policy doesn’t have a “dirty tricks” clause.
🛶We will have power boats on the river to help you if need be…if you can help it you don’t want a “need be” situation. Yikes!! If you should tip one of the power boats will come to the rescue…help them help you by getting in the boat and helping them flip the canoe so you can get back in to continue.

MEET OUR AMBASSADORS:
Brittany Haupt
Why Brittany Wanted to be an Ambassador:
"Being an ambassador for this race is a chance for me to be part of something bigger than just showing up on race day—it’s about leading, connecting, and inspiring others to get involved in a community I already believe in. Having done the race before, I know firsthand what makes it special, which puts me in the perfect position to share that experience and help others take the leap. It also aligns with who I am—someone who values movement, community, and helping people push their limits in a healthy way. As an ambassador, I’m not just promoting a race, I’m helping more people experience what it feels like to train with purpose, show up consistently, and cross that finish line stronger than they started. Plus, it allows me to build my presence in the local fitness and wellness space, strengthen relationships, and naturally connect people back to the work I’m already doing—helping people move better, feel better, and stay active long-term."

MEET OUR AMBASSADORS:
Daniel Segura
Why Daniel Wanted to be an Ambassador:
"I think this is such a fun and highly accessible event. As there is a serious Tri the same day every year in Metro Detroit and the 9/11 Veterans Run at SVSU every year, the folks who participate in this event are just doing it because it is fun and unserious. It is right down my alley! I have coached soccer with the Midland Soccer Club for many years. Currently, I am moving toward being in the best shape of my life as my 50th birthday is coming up on August 1. I have lost 45 pounds in the last year. "

MEET OUR AMBASSADORS:
Jenna Millhisler

Why Jenna Wanted to be an Ambassador:
"The driathlon has had my attention for the last few years. I hate swimming but LOVE me some Kayaking so it’s the perfect fit for my competitive addiction 🤣. This year I turned 39, and am finally my best for self in years after dealing with some health issues during my 30s. They didn’t stop me, but they slowed me down in my journey. Now those issues are sealed away in a jar, maintained by a strict diet and lifestyle and I am ready to rock in roll right before turning 40! I’m running my first marathon, the Detroit Marathon in October and I thought about how great it would be to accomplish the Driathlon in the same year with it! "

MEET OUR AMBASSADORS:
Cadia Hofmann

Why Cadia Wanted to be an Ambassador:
"I like to workout, but I love Bay City’s fitness community! I am a member of BARC, GWRBC, I participate in Lake Effect Functional Fitness’s awesome Hyrox classes, I am a member of Team ATP (a local triathlon group), and I am sure there’s more but I can’t think of it at the moment. I try my hardest to ring in others to join me in my movement fun. My children get dragged along and encouraged to participate when possible. There are a few races that are a must every year and the driathlon is 100% one of them. Great event, put on my the best people for a great cause."
