The 14th annual OAKDALE DUATHLON will happen on Saturday at Lake Elmo Park Reserve. Uncle Randy sent us an updated list of entries and barring late registration by the likes of DKT, Dan Hedgecock, Ruth Brennan Morrey and Matthew Payne, we are confident that the race will be won, and records challenged or broken, by Patrick Parish and either Suzie Fox or Diane Hankee, all of whom are among the very best duathletes in the US....
