The Bridgewater Triathlon Club is delighted to welcome you to the 18th annual O'Regan's Subaru Riverport Duathlon!

We will cap the participants to 90 for the entire event. Sprint is open to ages 16 and over, the Standard Du is open to 18 years of age and over, Do-a-Du is 12+, and we're sorry, but no teams again this year. There will be food provided at the end of the event and overall and age category winners will be recognized.

Early Bird registrants get a $10 discount and a commemorative shirt - get your entry in before September 2 at 11:59 pm. All registrations close at 11:59 pm on Friday September 30. Note, NO RACE-DAY REGISTRATION.

We are pleased to add a Standard Distance this year and are excited to be an Age Group Worlds Qualifier for both Sprint and Standard Duathlon!
