Organiser's Description
Say Yes to Adventure, and join Austin’s PinkStrong Women’s Only Sprint Duathlon Multisport Running Event.
Are You Ready to Do the DU?
The PinkStrong Sprint Duathlon multisport race begins with athletes charging BOLDLY up the Lakeway PinkStrong Hill, which leads to a 1.5 mile run on the trail. You will then transition onto the bike and cycle approximately 10 miles on a two loop course with fast flats and punchy short rolling hills, returning to the park you will then move on to complete your final run leg of 2.5 miles.
Are You More of a Runner?
The PinkStrong 5K Fun Run course has been designed to be adventurous, with shady paved paths, butterflies gardens, nestled brooks, bumpy hills, secret shady pathways, and a little bit of grass. Prepare for a few climbs and fast descents on all surfaces.
Don’t let your spark go undiscovered. As a part of our mission to introduce more women to multisport and assist triathletes who are returning to racing, we want to help you unleash your potential and celebrate your talent.
Sign up for the PinkStrong Sprint Duathlon & 5K and you’ll receive complimentary training plans to help you get stronger, train smarter and win on race day. Together, we can build ourselves and others healthier and stronger as we strive for a common goal on race day!
Run Course #1: The first run will be a 1.5 mile loop held entirely in the park on the park road and paved path. The course starts out uphill for the first 1/4 miles and a fast downhill will put you on a paved trail to complete the run to transition.
Bike Course: The bike course is an approximately 5-mile loop on public roads completed 2x. The course has rolling short hills, fast flat stretches and dedicated bike lanes on major roads. BIKE COURSE IS NOT CLOSED TO VEHICLE TRAFFIC. You must use caution and make your own judgement call when turning at each intersection. Police & Volunteers are at the key intersections & turns to ensure you all athletes navigate the course safely.
Run Course #2: The second run is entirely in the park using the path.
Each athlete will be given an ample *3* hours time limit to complete their event. No woman left behind and course/finish line will remain open till the last athlete crosses.
