Entry Fee: $200 and includes logoed dog life vest, cool t-shirt, and finisher medals!
The Race: 1500 meter swim followed by a 10k run - same swim/run as the Triathlon.
The Start: You and Fido will be together in a Doggy Duathlon-only wave.
Mandatory Doggie Life Vest: You may not mind throwing Fido into the Hudson with no life jacket but we do. A special life vest will be provided and must be worn by your dog during the entire swim. No vest, no race.
Who Wears the Chip: The dog wears the chip. You’re along for the ride.
Transition: There will be a separate Duathlon transition.
The Run: All dogs must be leashed before exiting transition. Race marshals will DQ the team if the dog leaves transition or is seen on the course without a leash. No leash, no race, no fun.
Briefing: You and Fido must attend the Doggie Duathlon-only briefing Saturday, July 19. There will be a dog whisper for the dog. No briefing, no race.
Vet Check: There will be a vet check at the briefing, swim start, and the transition. You think we’re kidding? Vet decisions are FINAL.
What Kind of Dogs May Enter: Any breed may enter but only with a human partner. No human, no race.
Vet DQ: Race Vets may DQ a team for ANY reason to protect the safety of the dog.
Awards: Top three finishers. There are no age, breed, or sex (human or dog) divisions.
PC Dogs and Athletes: Entries will be accepted on a case by case basis based on the disability of the dog or the human.
