About 39th Annual March Classic Duathlon

Race Start Time and Location:

Our first race of the 2026 season is just around the corner. We are back in Central Park for our 39th Annual Central Park March Classic Duathlon on March 22! Is the time of the year to see how much fitness you have gained or lost during the off season. If you are new in our sport or just starting out, this is the prefect race to get your feet wet! Who knows, you may be doing your first Ironman 70.3 in your near future!

The race starts at 7:00 am and finishes by the Central Park Boat House parking lot. Both Run #1 and #2 is 2.2 miles each, in out/back format.  You will be running on the Central Park Drive and making your way to the 96th Street Playground, right after the crosswalk.  You will see a sign telling you to turn around and running back to the Central Park Boat House.  Don’t turn around early or late.  When you see the playground on your right, you aren’t far from the turn around sign.  No significant elevation gain other than at the beginning you have to run up the Cat’s Paw hill. 

The bike course consists of riding 2 full loops around the Central Park drive. You are riding 6 miles per loop, 12 miles in total. The total elevation gain is about 250ft per loop. Is a challenging, hilly course for sure! The park is still open to the public and the course marshals will be at various points on the course to alert you and other park users.
