SACRAMENTO, CA - The 38th Eppie's Great Race is set for Saturday morning. The Sacramento-born triathlon features running, bicycling and kayaking.
The race starts with a 5.8 mile run, 12.5 miles on a bicycle, and 6.4 miles racing on the American River in a kayak.
More than 2,000 people participated in 2010. A similar crowd is expected this year, and registration remains open until 6:30 the morning of the race, near the starting line at the William Pond Recreation area along the American River.
Entry fees of more than $100 are required for adults, with proceeds going to Sacramento County Therapeutic Recreation Services.
