This is a fun race for the family.  With one adult and no more than two children, you can race in a team with your family. 

 

Note to Parents:

The event and course for 2017 has the same format and course layout as the 2016 DOathlon.  Spectators are invited to view the event from the grandstand.  Please do not cross or enter the course during races.  Marshalls will be positioned around the course to assist children during the races.  Please stay out of the Scooter and Bike Transition areas once the races are underway and follow any instructions from marshalls and staff at all times.
