Hundreds of elite athletes will descend on Lake Mission Viejo for the annual Orange County Triathlon on Sunday, May 22.
This Olympic-distance event traverses Mission Viejo neighborhoods and surrounding communities and includes a 1.5K swim in Lake Mission Viejo. Athletes then ride along the 40K bike course through Santiago Canyon, with part of the race crossing the 1984 Olympic finish line near the lake. Other events include an Aquathon and Duathlon.
Residents should be aware the following road closures on May 22:
Marguerite Parkway: Vista del Lago to La Barca 5:30 - 11 am
Olympiad Road: Melinda to Marguerite 5:30 - noon
Marguerite Parkway: La Barca to El Toro 6:30 - 8:30 am
Los Alisos Blvd: Novena to Entidad 8:30 - 10:30 am
Note: Melinda Road entrance to Lake Mission Viejo will remain open to athletes and lake members from westbound Olympiad only.
The Mission Viejo community has rallied to make the OC Triathlon-Duathlon a long-standing event that helps local and national charities.
