What's Happening this Year?
We are unable to offer the series this year due to public health restrictions necessitated by the Covid-19 pandemic. In its place, we will be offering a virtual event. Scroll down for details or visit our Facebook page (WTC Birds Hill Duathlon in the Park). Hope to see you in person in 2022.
