SUMMARY:Josh Billings Runaground Triathlon - Run\, Bike\, Canoe
DESCRIPTION:The Josh Billings Runaground is a 27-mile bike\, 5-mile canoe/kayak/SUP\, and 6-mile run triathlon held amid the Berkshires of western Massachusetts.  \n\n\n\nThe race starts in Great Barrington with a 27-mile bike ride through five towns with scenic backcountry roads and rolling hills to Stockbridge Bowl in Stockbridge where bikers hand off the wrist band to paddlers waiting at the lake.
