Shakespeare's Pizza MaxTrax Duathlon
A Month Away!
Are YOU on the Starting List?

Over the years, the MaxTrax Duathlon has grown into one of the largest duathlons in the nation. It is rare to see a duathlon anywhere with over 200 entrants. We are on track to fill at 350!
See the live participant list for all Ultramax Championship Series Events

What makes this race so popular? Early season, the fact this race is so beginner friendly, or all the hard work the the Ultramax Crew and The Columbia Multisport Club put into the event. Maybe all three! The short course is entry level focused, the bike is doable on just about any kind of bike, the run in on a flat trail and probably the most important - no swimming needed necessary!

Two New Athlete Focused Ultramax Partnerships

Chapman Heating and Air Conditioning delivers two outstanding gifts to athletes at the MaxTrax Duathlon and Race For Sight Triathlon.

Chapman Heating and Air Conditioning has been an outstanding Ultramax partner for several years running. In 2008, they celebrate their 50th year in business and YOU benefit.

At MaxTrax they are giving each athlete a poly carbonate water bottle and at Race for Sight you will receive custom printed DeFeet socks.

Be sure to thank Ron Chapman and his family. Many of them will be competing. The rest will be helping you have the best day of the season.

Please consider Chapman for your heating and air conditioning needs. They continue to support what you love, it is time to return the favor.

Piriformis Syndrome – A Pain in the Butt - By Dorothy Hamburg, MS, exercise physiologist

During one of my long runs, the topic of conversation was “pains in the butt”. We discussed those pains in detail: relationships, family responsibilities and household chores, and quite literally that vague annoying pain that seems to originate in our rear ends and goes down the back of the leg. More often than not this pain occurs when we run and can be quite debilitating. Read the complete March Article
