Each
year over 3,000 athletes brave the waters of the mighty Hudson River
before biking along Manhattan's West Side highway. Finally, athletes put
on their running shoes for a run through New York's famed Central Park.
For more information about the course, check out the fly-over, the course description, the RCN high-speed course tour and the RCN high-speed transition.

Tri For Our Sons Requirements
|
- Registration Fee (which counts toward your fundraising minimum): $100
- Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD) requires a fundraising committment of $2,100
to participate on this team. To help you reach this
goal, we provide fundraising tips, a personalized webpage and other
fundraising tools. Our fundraising minimums are determined on a race-by-race
basis in order to recover costs and maximize the funding going directly to help
those living with Duchenne.
Fundraising minimum due date: June 25, 2012
By joining the Tri For Our Sons team for this race, you are personally
pledging to raise the required fundraising minimum. If your minimum has not
been met by the date specified above, PPMD staff will contact you to secure
your position on the team with a credit card. You will then have four weeks
after the date of the race to continue to collect donations, after which time you
will be asked to make up the difference between the minimum and what you have
raised.
