Good morning everyone, only 6 days left to race day! We really appreciate everyone who has signed up so far! We are at 17 (including team members).... If anyone is planning on racing, make sure to sign up soon. It would be great to get to at least 30! Happy training.

Clarification on age limit: full duathlon (individual): 16 yrs (as of Dec 31). 12 to 15-years old (as of Dec 31) : able complete the second run leg (2.5km) as part of a team of 2 or 3.

NOTICE TO PARTICIPANTS: In an effort to reduce single-use plastics, the Baddeck Duathlon will not be providing bottled water this year. We have decided that this is one small step we can take to be more environmentally friendly. We will still be providing water and Gatorade on the run course and in the transition area with recyclable cups, however we are asking that all participants bring their own reusable water bottle which they can fill at designated locations in order to try and reduce the amount of cups we use. The majority of participants bring bottles anyway and we have found in the past that disposable plastic bottles are a huge waste. Thanks for helping in our effort to reduce waste!

Race day is less than 3 weeks away! Make sure to sign up if you're planning on racing! Helps us a lot to know how many people to expect! Happy training.

Duathlon Clinic tonight at 5pm at Baddeck Academy

Don't forget about the clinic we're organizing on Friday at 5pm at Baddeck Academy!

For anyone wanting to do the race as a team but is missing team members, we have added a form to the registration site (https://ccnbikes.com/#!/events/baddeck-duathlon) that allows you to enter your info, including which leg you would be doing. The link to the form is just above the registration links on the main page. We will use the information to match up participants on our end and notify everyone once a team has been formed. hopefully this will help to get a few more teams entered in this year's race

I hope everyone's training is going well! We've finally had some warmer days this week. This is just a quick reminder that registration fees will increase on Monday. So if you're planning on racing, make sure to sign up this weekend and save a few bucks!

Would there be interest in organized rides around the Big Baddeck loop to get to know the course? If there is, we'll organize a couple between now and race day. Let us know!
