Rivington Duathlon is a unique run/bike/run format event known locally as the "start of season social race" with a challenging course.

Rivington Duathlon is a unique run/bike/run format event known locally as the "start of season social race" but with nothing particularly social about the course! Competitors can race solo or team up with a partner, with pairs allowed to work together on the bike (drafting permitted between teammates only). The signature format features a tough 3.5 mile trail run start, a hilly 21 mile bike in the middle, and a challenging 3.5 mile trail run finish. This creates a demanding event that combines technical trail running with substantial climbing on the bike, finishing with a grimace and character-building mountain running. The event attracts all ability levels with fantastic atmosphere, team rivalries, and strong community spirit.
