Dive into one of New Mexico’s most fun summer race weekends in Santa Rosa—“the City of Natural Lakes.” The City of Lakes Triathlon (COLT) features a crystal-clear open-water swim in Twin Lake, a fast bike through classic high-desert scenery, and a run that brings the energy back to the water and the community.
