We highly recommend that all participants purchase an annual USAT license rather than a single day license.  The cost is $39 and provides the holder with insurance for all USAT sanctioned events for an entire year.  It also comes with many other benefits and coupons for on-line purchases.  See www.usatriathlon.org for more information.  Fees from a single one-day license may be applied to the purchase of an annual license, so keep your receipt.

$1.50 per person will be collected at the park entrance for all participants and spectators.  If you are a volunteer, please email volunteer@multirace.com for a parking pass.

Volunteers:
We are always looking for volunteers.  If you are attending the race, but not participating, or are racing but are bringing spectators with you, please email volunteer@multirace.com as we have plenty of fun jobs helping out with the race that gets you up close to all the action.  You'll be glad you did!

Course Description:
This duathlon features a 1.65 mile closed course run, followed by a 11 mile bike with no road crossings and an entire lane closed to traffic, then finishes with a 1.65 mile closed course run.  The bike course starts around the outer lane of the street inside the park and exits south on Flamingo to Pines.  Riders will head west on Pines to the first right turn and continue staying on the right as they circle around the outside of the park.  We turn right at all intersections and all roads have 2 or more lanes, so the course is extremely safe even though it goes outside of the park.  The bike course is 5.5 miles and we will do 2 laps.  The run course goes along the inner lane of the street around the lake.  There will be 1 lap before the bike and 1 lap after the bike of 1.65 miles each.
