Registration Details

The fourth annual Damage Control Master Formula Auburn Long Course Duathlon will start 10 minutes after the World's Toughest Half. You will run a 3k course at Folsom Lake, then bicycle 56 miles and run 13.1 miles on the World's Toughest Half route, going "head-to-head" with long course triathletes!

Damage Control Master Formula is the premier comprehensive multivitamin/mineral/antioxidant/anti-stress supplement in the world. This product will give you the protection you need to balance hard training and a busy, stress lifestyle without breaking down.

FREE Download: Check out MarksDailyApple.com for daily health and fitness tips, including how you can mitigate the unhealthy aspects of endurance training by living according to the Primal Blueprint, Mark's comprehensive diet, exercise and lifestyle book.

Check out the PrimalCon weekend health&fitness conference, a great opportunity to learn how to eat, train and live in health and balance as you pursue extreme endurance goals!


3k Run

The initial 3k takes place at Rattlesnake Bar Park, the site of the triathlon swim venue. The course will proceed along the lake shore on a mix of paved road, dirt road, single track and double track trail. The course is mainly flat with some rolling sections and gentle climb or descent.

Take your time and enjoy a good warmup for the next two events. If the winner of the initial 3k fails to finish in the top-10 overall, he will receive the special award of temporary forehead tatoo that says, "Poser". Note: This is a two-transition race - you will need two pairs of shoes!

From Rattlesnake Bar at elev. 466', you will top out at elev. 2,435' by mile 31, then losing elevation for the final 25 miles to reach Railhead Park at elev. 1,300'.

13.1 Mile (21K) RUN

The 13.1-mile run is on a new spectator-friendly, 3-loop course of 7 kilometers-a scenic and challenging route through the Auburn State Park and Auburn canyon-edge neighborhoods.

You'll pass thru a spectator-lined chute at the Railhead Park finish line on every loop and get 7k splits to keep you on pace.

The course consists of the following: 1.25 miles of flat single&double track shaded canal trail, 1 mile of gradual descent, 1 mile of flat and 1 mile of gradual climb (200') to the finish line. Click here for complete run course details
