The Sugarbush triathlon in mid April (in Waitsfield Vermont)
5 mile run, 8 mile paddle, 12 mile bike, 5K cross country ski.

Yeah I know, a triathlon should only have 3 events.

I've got vivid memories of my canoeing partner being thrown over the
bow of the canoe, into the water, when we hit a rock.  We had been breaking 
skim ice in the corners and he was just wearing sweats (and a pfd) when he 
went in, brrrr.

There are probably lots of other similar races.

People in the Southwest, e.g. californians going up to Mammoth, probably 
have a much easier time doing this than those in a cold climate.
