Lake Ludwig swim launches a two-day triathlon weekend
Sprint and youth triathlons combine a Lake Ludwig swim, scenic cycling, creekside running, and a downtown Clarksville finish festival over two race days.
Event details
A 500-meter swim at Lake Ludwig opens the Broken Sword Triathlon before athletes cycle 15 miles through the Ozark foothills and run a 5K along Spadra Creek, with a downtown finish festival and age-group youth races extending the event across two full days of racing.
The dedicated Kids Tri makes this an especially approachable weekend for adventure-minded families, since children can take part in their own age-appropriate race rather than only watching from the sidelines. The lake start also gives non-racing family members a simple, shaded place to watch the swim leg together before the cycling begins.
The lake start and early race schedule make an overnight Clarksville Stay the practical choice for both athletes and their families. Pack swim gear, bikes, and running shoes the night before to simplify race-morning logistics, and plan for warm Ozark conditions across both distances. Mount Magazine, Lake Dardanelle, and the Ozark National Forest give the family a natural reason to extend the visit once the final medals are handed out, turning one race weekend into a fuller Ozark getaway.
