Unique training opportunity

There is a really cool event coming up next weekend (Aug 15) in Eagan.  The race is a duathlon (biking/running), but it's set up more like the Muddy Buddy, where there are teams of 2 that share one bike and alternate modes of transport every mile, i.e. bike 1, run 1, bike 1, run 1, etc.  It's a total of six miles, so three miles of each--great for beginners!  There is also a huge breakfast of crepes, nuts, fruit, energy bars, coffee, etc. after the race.  It's the first year for the event, but looks like it'll be really fun.

It looks like registration is open right up until race time.  Here's the website I found: Get Fit Bike-Run Relay.  If anyone wants to get involved but doesn't have a partner, let the director know (email or whatever); she told me she's played matchmaker for teams.

See you there!
