This year, they have changed the format from a single day activity to a self-paced event to be completed over a 40 day time span. The goal is to include athletes from all over North America in the triathlon. With this format, people can all participate at the same time on a nation-wide scale. This format also allows LifeNets to invite participants from all over the world to participate as many nations know of LifeNets and their works around the world.
