OptumHealth Performance Manitou Sprint Triathlon

The Manitou Triathlon has been in existence since 1990, and has truly become one of the "must-do" races of any Minnesota Triathlete. Being a relatively "easy" course early in the year, it's often chosen by rookie triathletes as their first race. But the Midwest's elite athletes also like the course because "it's just plain fast."

This year, OptumHealth became the primary sponsor for the OptumHealth Performance Manitou Triathlon which was held Sunday, June 13th in White Bear Lake, Minnesota.
