The LazyMan IronMan is a triathlon challenge created for everyone! Participants will have the opportunity to complete a Full or Half IRONMAN by swimming, biking, and running their way to the finish line at their own pace and in their own time. 

  • Don't like to swim? Substitute rowing instead for a "dry" challenge option!

Track your mileage in the YMCA360 app. The app will allow you to track your workouts and see an up-to-date leaderboard of who is currently in the top positions. Group fitness classes may count toward mileage.

  • Members: $35/person

  • Non-Members: $45/person

  • 3-Person Team: $90 ($30/team member, 3 people/team)

Participants will receive:

  • Coupons for two $5 InBody Scans
    • You may schedule scans at any time at the Member Services Desks, but we encourage you to schedule a scan at the beginning of the challenge and at the end of the challenge to see how far you've come!
  • Commemorative participation t-shirt to all finishers
  • Weekly emails with triathlon tips and updates on the leader boards.
