SUMMARY:Horn Harbor Duathlon (Run+Swim)
DESCRIPTION:Also known as “Beat The Jellies” we’re doing it again! This is our 4th Horn Harbor Duathlon – the date/time selected is to avoid jellyfish (which arrive in the area late June/ early July) and to coincide with high tide. You do not need to be a club member to participate in this NO COST\, non-competitive event. OK – we do time it (overall & splits) but just for bragging rights. \nMeet at the Johnson’s Home in Mathews Co – run 4.75 miles to Horn Harbor Marina then swim 0.85 miles back to their dock. Email vttrunners@gmail.com if you need directions or have questions. For more information including course map\, check our website: vttrunners.com/horn-harbor-biathlon. Even if you aren’t competing\, I hope you’ll stop over to cheer us on. We can always use extra folks for water support\, for timing\, or just to clap & eat.

SUMMARY:Horn Harbor Duathlon aka "Beat The Jellies"
DESCRIPTION:We are a growing group of friends who get together once a year for a “home based” challenge: starting and finishing from the Johnsons house on Horn Harbor (off Borum Creek). The route is 4.75 mile run/walk to Horn Harbor Marina\, followed by a 0.85 mile swim back to the house. \nWe’ve timed this to: 1) coincide with high tide\, and 2) take place before the jellyfish arrive in the area. \nThere is no cost – but I can’t say it isn’t competitive! \nIf interested just email: vttrunners@gmail.com. \nEven if you don’t participate in the run/swim\, come out to Horn Harbor Marina to see the transition point\, and join us at the Johnsons for post-event breakfast.
