Race series!

This year marks the 4th annual DoubleShot Duathlon, and we've decided to step it up.  After adding a 5k Trail Run last year, we're giving the race another shot in the arm by putting on a series of three races this year.  

The series begins August 8 at Lake Keystone.  The Keystone trails will present competitors with a combination of rocky, technical trail and relatively smooth, fast sections.  

Lake McMurtry is the second race of the year, on September 5.  Located just outside Stillwater, the trails will add a new element, as racers will pick up the pace on the twisty, hard-pack singletrack.  

The big race of the year will again be at Turkey Mountain on October 10.  Expect the usual fun and games on Turkey's rock-strewn paths.  To make it interesting, we've increased the prize money at Turkey to $400, $300, and $200.  That's money worth racing for.

5k Trail Run events will also be held at each venue.
