The 15th annual Howell Independence Aquathlon race will begin at 9am on Sunday, July 2nd, taking participants on a run through the Howell City Park and Lakeview Cemetery and a swim in Thompson Lake. The multi-sport event is comprised of a 2k run and a 750 meter swim, followed by a final 2k run. There is also the option of a one-mile open water swim.
Individuals can choose one or take advantage of an all-inclusive price that allows them to participate in both events at a discount. The deadline to register is July 1st, at 11:59pm. Awards will be given to the top three males and females in each age group for the Aquathlon, and to those who take first place in the open water swim.
