  • Description: Run Course #1: The run course will feature a time trial start, in reverse across the finish line and have runners going right on Hwy 53 out of the FFA center and turns just in front of the Wam Squam for a total of 2.4 miles. The start will be immediately after the last swim wave of the White Lake half.

    Bike Course: The White Lake Duathlon bike course will have competitors taking a right out of the FFA center onto Hwy 53, then down around the Wam Squam to Hwy 701. North on Hwy 701 for 8 miles to Hwy 210. Right (southeast) on Hwy 210 for 25 miles to Hwy 53. Right on Hwy 53 for the 20 miles back to the race site. The best part of the new bike course was the elimination of the famed Over Lyon out & back section in 2013. Literally only four turns on the 56 mile course.

    Run Course #2: The run course will have runners going right on Hwy 53 out of the FFA center and down behind the Wam Squam.The course is on the bike lane along 701. Runners will run in and out of Turtle Cove on the way out. They will NOT enter Turtle Cove on the way back. Not much shade on this run course, so the earlier April date should be appreciated the most on the run. Vehicular traffic and runners will be separated by DOT traffic cones. Any runner caught running outside the traffic cones will be DQ'd on the spot. This is a very important safety consideration, so violations to this rule will be dealt with severely - NO WARNING. There will be 7 aid stations along the course, please do not throw your trash along the side of the road, use the provided trash cans.
