Erie Duathlon

September 24 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Adults & Kids (Kids immediately following the adult event)

Description:  Erie Duathlon benefitting the Erie Cancer Wellness Center.  The Erie Cancer Wellness Center seeks to support and comfort individuals and families who are facing the impact of cancer. The programs offered by ECWC are free of charge to anyone who is living with a cancer diagnosis, who is caring for someone with cancer, has a loved one with cancer or has experienced a cancer related loss.  ECWC welcomes all and strives to nurture and empower people living with cancer through their evidence-based healing classes, programs and services.
The Erie Duathlon will be a 5K run, followed by a 20K bike, and finished with a 5K run.  The race will begin and finish at Pleasant Ridge Park in Fairview and will consist of a course through the beautiful county roads surrounding the park in Fairview and Girard.  The course is designed to engage the veteran racer but at the same time achievable for the rookie or hobbyist.  All are welcome! Athletes can compete as an individual or as a two-person relay (runner and cyclist).
An Erie Kids Duathlon will take place at the conclusion of the Erie Duathlon, open to children 3-13.
Join our cause!  We invite you to create your own fundraising page to help raise important funds for the Erie Cancer Wellness Center.  If you achieve $100 in pledges, you will receive two pairs of running/cycling socks as a thank you.  Once you hit $200, you will get the socks AND a long sleeve ECWC tee!  And to top it all off, if you achieve $300 in pledges by August 1st, you will receive the socks, the long sleeve tee, AND a custom Erie Cancer Wellness Center cycling jersey!!  Create your page today and engage your friends and family to support you in the Erie Duathlon!
