There are sadly, very few over the olympic distance. HFP racing has a good one in OH in August--The Great Buckeye Challenge-- 3.1/56/13.1. I believe they have another long distance du in June. www.hfpracing.com.[/URL" target="_blank">

If you do the Great Buckeye Challenge, just don't follow CCRoz's lead and take a wrong turn off the side of a mountain.

The ultimate LD Duathlon: American Zofingen. That's on my schedule for next year since I didn't think I could handle the climbing this year. Also, a short course option.

Several of the 1/2 IM's in southern Ontario have 1/2 IM duathlon options. I know for sure that Peterborough does this.
