17th annual OAKDALE DUATHLON - The outdoor tri/du season is here and one of our state's classic events is slated for next Saturday. That event even has the word "classic" in it's name: the Oakdale Spring Classic Duathlon....
The focus of this preview I is to share some history, and to acknowledge some exciting changes.
Changes?
Yup. Exciting ones. In addition to the "classic" three mile - 14- mile - 2.5 mile event, distances that have been in place since 2011, event organizers are adding new distances and formats. Exciting, huh?
The new options have our bike-crazy community in mind: 3-mile run, 28-mile bike (2 loops) - 2.5 mile run, and 14-mile bike - 2.5 mile run - 14-mle bike
As for the historical stuff, here are the records for the current standard (3-mile - 14-mile - 2.5 mile) course:
