2013 Heel and Crank Duathlon:
The Heel & Crank Duathlon is a very popular, USAT Sanctioned duathlon in Alabama that is put on by the Team Rocket Triathlon Club.
This race is a beginner-friendly event as well as a good Sprint for the veterans.
The Heel & Crank Duathlon is announcing a new date and new venue in order to accomodate a growing community of multi-sport enthusiasts.
Beginning in 2013, the Heel & Crank is relocating to the beautiful historic village of Mooresville Alabama and will be a gorgeous spring race (April 20, 2013).
The duathlon is a fundraiser for ALSA, in memory of Darin Kruse.
Course Information:
Run 1 (3 miles) is an out-and-back course. Approximately 1 mile of the run will be on paved roads through Mooresville with the remainder of the run being on a crushed gravel road running through Wheeler Wildlife Refuge. There will be two aid-stations on the run course, the first at 3/4 miles and the second just prior to the turnaround. This means runners will enjoy a total of three aid-stations spaced approximately every 3/4 mile.

You will then enter transition, go to your bike, run it to the mount line, then proceed to enjoy a bike through beautiful East Limestone County. Bike course (13.5 miles) is marked with BLACK turn arrows with volunteers at the major intersections. The bike course is mostly flat, but will have a few "rollers". The bike course will not have any aid stations, but will have sag wagon for any bicycle mechanicals.
Upon completion of the bike portion, you will enter transition (dismounting at the marked line), rack your bike in the exact same location, then head out on run 2, which is the exact same course as the first run.
