Short Course Duathlon
This Duathlon runs simultaneously along side the ParaFriendly Triathlon. This consists of a 2.5k run, 20k bike, and a 5k run.
The first 2.5k out and back run 'can' be handled by some wheel chairs, but is NOT easy. The initial part (and final part) of the out and back is about a quarter mile on a gravel road before hitting the asphalt.
The 5k of both the duathlon and triathlon are entirely on smooth accessible asphalt.
To compete in the FOX ISLAND SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP only 2 races of the 3 can be a duathlon. Scoring is independent for the category. Ex: you're 10th out of 50 total duathletes, you receive 40 points. However triathlon participant numbers are usually higher. Ex: you're 20th place out of 150 triathletes, you receive 130 points.
To compete in the TRI STATE TRIATHLON CHAMPIONSHIP, any combination of categories can be run.
