Description
If you love to run and cycle but dread the swimming portion of a triathlon, then HALE-uva Duathlon II is the event for you.
On April 23rd 2016, you will start with a 5K run, then a 21 mile bike ride, and finally another 5K run. With so many running and cycling event in West Texas, this is the second in Plainview’s history that combines both into one fun and challenging event.
