The Xpedition Triathlon is an annual event held in Bloomer, WI to raise money for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Wisconsin. Participants run 4.2 miles, bike 14.5 miles, and canoe 2.5 miles. The traditional swimming leg was replaced with canoeing to encourage more people to participate, but the race still holds a reputation for being extreme. After the race there is a party in downtown Bloomer with live music, food and beverages.
