Stone County’s Cultivation Nation Triathlon celebrates its 10th anniversary this year (2024). The community-driven event, scheduled for August 31, 2024 at Flint Creek Water Park, is designed to bring together and challenge athletes of all levels from all over the Southeast region.
Participants will endure a 17-mile bike ride along scenic routes, a 600-yard swim through fresh waters, and a 3.1-mile run through charming local areas—all for a great cause.
Whether you’re an experienced triathlete or an attendee looking for adventure, Cultivation Nation also offers the opportunity to uncover the hidden gems that await in Stone County all weekend (or all week!) long.
Words from the Race Director – Brandy Maulden
“As a triathlete and race director, it is my goal to provide fellow triathletes the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful venue and have an amazing race experience. There is nothing like waking up early to go put all you have on the line. Once you cross that finish line and feel that sense of accomplishment, it makes all the challenges worth it. I hope that triathletes that race Cultivation Nation can see how much my team and I put into providing an amazing race for everyone – from the beginner to the most experienced – we want every person to come out and see this beautiful place and get a feel for this small town that has big southern charm.”

WHY:
One of the most rewarding aspects of the Cultivation Nation Triathlon is its commitment to giving back to the community. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Stone County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Stone County SPCA). Last year’s event raised funds to help care for and find homes for animals in need. We hope your participation will help us make an even bigger impact this year!
