The South Bay Sprint and International Duathlons, with a Run-Bike-Run format. These races will give all the endurance athletes a great opportunity to prepare for the upcoming triathlon season, the remainder of the duathlon season, or just enjoy an endurance event in the bay area. Our looped course is set along the east hills of Morgan Hill, CA, 20 minutes south of San Jose and in the heart of the Silicon Valley. This moderately flat and fast course will set the stage for a great finish.
We will have a ton of awards and an after race party that offers free food and beverages for all participants.

The Bike Course (Online Map): Bikers, you need to keep your heads up and obey all city traffic codes. All racers need to be aware that the race course is not closed to vehicle traffic and we urge you all to be safe and stay to the right side of the road at all times. The course is marked with cones, chalk, police officers and volunteers. This course has rolling hills and is very scenic.

Drafting: Drafting is illegal. We ask your help in doing the best we can to help enforce the "NO DRAFTING" rules of USA Triathlon. You, the athlete, are the simplest and best way to keep the bike course safe and draft free. We will have USA Triathlon Officials out on the bike course, but you personally need to help the sport and yourself by simply backing out of packs, slowing down or verbally mentioning to other athletes not to draft.
