Duathletes?

[zoom-zoom]

Hi –

I’m new to this board but I’m also interested in hearing about training experiences. There is a dualthalon in Central Park this fall and I’m wondering how much training I have to do. Its 2-mile run, 10-mile bike, 2-mile run.

I currently cycle a fair amount (120 miles a week) and have done a few centuries. I can comfortably run 5 miles. Am I being naïve thinking that I won’t have any problems completing this duathlon?

You could do it today, no problem...heck, you could probably do 2x the distance in a single race. DU it!!!

You could do it and you will have a blast! It is so much fun.

Thanks – from what I’ve read they don’t close the course in Central Park for this dualthalon which means we have to navigate around all the other people in the park. I’d love to find one in a less crowded area
