Course Info: The Mid-Ohio Grand Prix Duathlon takes place on
the sports car course of the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course (MOSCC) and the
surrounding well-paved and maintained roads on North Central Ohio?s
naturally rolling terrain. All runs will take place on the Mid-Ohio?s
2.4 mile sports car course. The bike course includes both the sports car
course and the roads surrounding Mid-Ohio. The progression of each
duathlon is as follows: After you complete the 1st run of your event,
you will enter the transition (T1). You will then re-enter the track on
your bikes and complete one 2.4-mile lap on the sports car course before
heading out onto the portion of the bike route outside the track. You
will complete a 9.1-mile route on the surrounding roads, the route of
which will bring you back to the track where you will complete another
2.4-mile lap on the sports car course. Total distance one bike route lap
is approximately 22K. If you are a sprint distance participant, you will
then enter into the transition (T2). If you are a short course
participant, you will again exit the sports course to complete another
9.1-mile route returning to the sports car course to complete another
2.4-mile lap before entering T2. If you are a long course participant,
you will again exit the sports course to complete another 9.1-mile route
returning to the sports car course to complete another 2.4-mile lap
before entering T2. The 9.1-mile bike course outside the sports car
course will take you along the scenic woodland surrounding the Clear
Fork Reservoir. Both the transition area and Finish line area will be in
front of MidOhio?s main grandstand along Championship Row allowing
spectators, family and friends a premier place to watch the exciting
runs, transistion, and finish. The families, friends, and spectators
will be able to watch a good portion of the race take place in front of
them.
