Are You TEXAS Tough?

Join us for the 8th annual Texas Tough Duathlon! This race is a challenging run, ride, run in the Texas Hill Country. We do our best to serve you awesome post-race food, refreshments, unique registrant and finisher awards, and free racer photos. This race is also a major fundraiser for the UTSA Triathlon Team. We love your support. Go 'Runners!!

Our race venue is at the Dr. Sara McAndrew Elementary School. Our first run (a 5k) will lead us North into the beautiful Hill Country with a rolling out and back. A fair taste of Texas Tough hills awaits you on the 16 mile road ride, heading North up Toutant Beauregard and turning onto Dodge Rd. The bike will turn around and head back at the end of Dodge Rd. The second run will go South from transition for a shorter out and back. The run ends with a nice downhill finish.

Bragging Rights. And so much more.
