Ice Duathlon

Celebrate Edmonton's Unique Winter, Foods and Drinks!

Two of our favourite winter pursuits combined! Come together for a fun and wintry experience and run, skate, and run around Hawrelak Park. Participate solo, or with family and friends by entering as a team - all skill levels and all types of skate blades are welcome.

Both aspects of the chip timed dualthon take place inside Hawrelak Park. The run is held on the road around the park and the skating is held on the pond. Come cheer on the athletes - or better yet, sign up to enjoy the challenge!
