We are pleased to present TriRidgefield and DuRidgefield. First held in 2007, the races wind their way through the bucolic countryside of Ridgefield, Connecticut. There will be a Sprint Triathlon, consisting of a half-mile swim in pristine Great Pond, a rolling 13-mile bike ride, and a challenging 5K finishing run. For you non-swimmers, we will also have a Sprint Duathlon held concurrently with the Tri, consisting of a 2-mile run, followed by the same 13-mile bike ride, and finishing 5K run.

NOTE: For registrations received after May 1, we cannot guarantee you will receive a shirt.

This race will start and finish on Kenosia Avenue. Runners will begin the race heading northbound until they reach Christopher Columbus Avenue. From there, runners will continue around the cul-de-sac and head back towards the start/finish line. The course is flat and will have a hydration table set up around the halfway point. There will be a post race party and awards at Elicit Brewery following the race.

Every dollar raised from this race will go toward supporting an officer’s child’s higher education fund. At the end of the event, a recipient will be randomly chosen by an independent third party.

A free beer from Elicit Brewing will be given to any runner age 21+, with valid proof of sign up.

There will be plenty of parking available on race day at the Elicit Brewery lot, located at 15 Backus Avenue.

Early bib pickup will be available on Saturday, June 6th at Elicit Brewery
