Chilly Cheeks Winter Duathlon #3

The Chilly Cheeks Duathlon Series is composed of 3 events, each with a different format. Each race is comprised of approximately 4 miles of running on paved roads, bike paths, and dirt trails. There will also be approximately 10 miles of cycling in each race. The entire bike course is held on paved park roadways.

The February Format will start with a 10 mile non-drafting paved bike ride. Riders will go off in groups of 5-10 at 1 minute intervals. Starting groups will be assigned as entries are received. The race will finish with a 4-mile road and dirt-trail run. The event will start and finish at the Hobie Hill area, near the West Entrance to the park.

Keep in mind, this is a winter event, and although the entire bike course is paved, there may be snow, sand, and/or ice along the route. This official race website will be updated approximately 2 days before each event (no emails will be sent) with the course conditions to assist you in choosing your bike and shoes for the event.

Races will be contested regardless of conditions – and if the weather warrants we may change the distances, course, or format of the race accordingly, so no grumbling – this is all about having fun in the winter.

The Chilly Cheeks Run Series events follow the same fun run course as the duathlon, covering a mix of road, paved bike path, and well maintained dirt trails. The Run-Only wave of the February race will begin at 10:20am.

This is a no-frills event – we don’t do awards or shirts, but we do have some yummy goodies afterwards and this is a very supportive and fun group of athletes. All races will be chip-timed.
