“If you build it, they will come.” Was the famous refrain that led Kevin Costner to build a baseball field in the middle of an Iowa cornfield. Now, Bo Lebastchi wants athletes to train, race, and stay at his self-built, triathlon field of dreams.
Describe the Triterium for those who haven’t seen it yet
TRITERIUM was a passion project of mine designed to be a private getaway for myself or any other tri freaks that wanted to escape to the sun and immerse themselves in everything triathlon. It consists of a 5-lane, 25-yard lap pool, and a .3-mile asphalt running and cycling track. It also has other goodies like a permanent start/finish line and transition area.
