Duathlon Added!

Attention Rockers, we have added a Duathlon. This Run-Bike-Run event will give athletes a chance to get their feet wet in the multisport discipline, without actually getting their feet wet. This will be an open event with Male/Female divisions, there will be NO age groups.

Run: 1.5 miles Bike: 11 miles Run: 3 miles

New Date/Venue:

Due to Hurricane Irene, the date and venue of Land Rover TriRock New York has changed to Saturday, May 5, 2012 at Lake Welch in Harriman State Park.

Unfortunately, during Hurricane Irene last year, the Lake Sebago beach area was washed away and all events are indefinitely suspended from operating in that space. Lake Welch is less than five miles north and offers the same pristine waters and beautiful scenery.
