Announcing the newest long-distance triathlon in New York State slated for June 1, 2024 at Jamesville Beach Park, just outside of Syracuse.?The race, titled OnondagaMan will welcome athletes from all over the Northeast and will be limited to 300 participants.?

With the departure of the Ironman 70.3 Syracuse in 2018, the venue remained a terrific place to hold a triathlon.?Swimming 1.2 miles within the Jamesville Reservoir, followed by a 56-mile bike loop encompassing three counties; Onondaga, Madison, and Cortland, and ending with a 13.1 mile run on the roads neighboring Jamesville Beach Park. ?

Local triathletes missed the race and several people had reached out to Race Director, Coach Mark Wilson, to see if there was any possibility of bringing the race back.?After several phone calls and applications to the Town of LaFayette and Onondaga County Parks, permission was granted in March 2023.?

The race will be produced by Wilson Endurance Sports, LLC, based out of Cassadaga, NY.?Formed in 2017 by husband and wife team, Mark and Tonia Wilson, they now produce 19 running and multi-sport events across New York State and 1 race in Connecticut. ?Coach Mark has been a full-time triathlon and endurance sports coach for over 25 years.?To learn more about Wilson Endurance Sports and their events visit www.CoachMarkWilson.com or call 716-353-1288.
