What Is The iron pig duathlon?
A USA Triathlon sanctioned duathlon that consists of a 3 mile run, 18 mile bike and 3 mile run. This is the only duathlon in the world that has a leg of the race on an airport runway. The race is open to Individuals and teams of two or three people. Come "Run The Runway"!
What are The iron pig RUN/walks?
A 5K Run and a 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk which are both held on an airport runway. The 5K run will be one of the fastest in the world...there is less than 40 feet elevation change. The 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk is very family friendly, so come "Run The Runway"!
What is the Iron Pig Bike Time Trial?
A USA Cycling sanctioned 17 mile bike time trial. Known as the "race of truth", cyclists can test themselves against the clock. Several categories with a non-aero equipment category as well. Come set a course record or test yourself against the times of the duathlon competitors.
What are The Courses Like?
The first 3 mile run is on the Drake Airport runway! Yes...the runway! The bike course is out and back on Scenic Hwy 71 and the final 3 mile run is flat and fast as well. The finish is located just in front of the airport terminal. This course is geared to people looking for a challenge, but is not too hilly for an early season test. A good first-time event for an individual or team or a great way to kickoff the race season for the seasoned athlete.
