The 2015 Barton Springs Pool Treeathlon is a fun way to support Barton Springs Pool, Austin’s most famous and cherished swimming hole. As shown in the course map below, the Treeathlon will be a very, very short and fun event in and around Barton Springs Pool, starting with a short swim across the width of Barton Springs Pool (maybe 50 yards), a short bike ride around the park from the pool (about 2/3 mile), and then a run (1/4 to 1/2 mile) inside Zilker Park. There will also be a finish line party at the Polo Field Picnic area for anyone who manages to complete this grueling course. Hence, the name Barton Springs Pool Treeathlon Fun-raiser. (Insert groan here).
