The Experience

RUN, WALK & WHEN ONE SPORT IS NOT ENOUGH, JUST DU IT! Time to dust off the cobwebs and start the multi-sport racing season with the 42nd Annual Spring Classic Duathlon, Half Marathon, 10K & 5K! It's time to see who stayed in shape all winter! Choose the Duathlon or any of the 3 different running distances, and let's Spring into Action! DUATHLON - 5K RUN / 12.91 MILE BIKE / 5K RUN The Spring Classic Duathlon is a great opportunity for triathletes to shake off the winter-season rust and for the duathletes to get in an early-season race. It will be a flat & fast course...perfect for those new to the sport of Duathlon and Triathlon! And for you veterans, this will be a fabulous opportunity to go all out and see who stayed in good condition this winter! There are no railroad tracks on the bike route – just 12.91 miles of smooth pavement ideally suited for fast times. The course is virtually flat, and for the novice athlete, the sense of safety from not having to be overly concerned with vehicle traffic makes this event an ideal introduction to the world of multi-sport racing. Spring Classic Half Marathon, 10K & 5K - This beautiful, flat and fast course along the pancake flats of the Vancouver Lake Regional Park is a wonderful event to set as a goal to keep your conditioning strong through the winter and spring cold and rainy seasons! Our start/finish location at the Vancouver Lake Regional Park will allow us to relax and share our racing stories once we all finish! We will have high-energy music, fun vendors, food, and who is ordering the sunshine?! Enough Hibernating! Wake up, Get out & Race at the Spring Classic! (PARKING IS INCLUDED WITH REGISRATION FEES)
