CYCLING RULES:
WHY SHOULD I DO DUATHLON?
If you're on the fence about doing a Duathlon, there's only one direction to go and that's towards the finish line. Here are few reasons why you should run & bike.
Some people want to cross it off their bucket list, others have something to prove: Whatever your motivation is, it feels really good to say, "Yeah, I've done a duathlon."
"Pushing my physical limits teaches me to be comfortable being uncomfortable...in training and life."
"Training for dual sports is so much more interesting than just training for one.
"I race to see how far I can push myself, whether it's for a better time or to see if I can complete a harder race.
In duathlon, "You always find new boundaries to push, and you discover you're stronger than you thought."
"You feel a lot of different sensory experiences during a race—wind, water, sun, dirt, cold, heat, pain—and they all add up to the triumph of crossing the finish line. It's an adventure that covers a lot of ground and puts your body through its paces, yet takes less than a day and is wholly satisfying."
The truth is, "People are capable of so much more than they think."
