Plunge Pedal & Plod has been Fit & Able's signature annual event since 1997 and we are glad to be back again for 2016!  With four courses there is a challenge for athletes of all ages and skill levels.  Whether you're new to the sport of a seasoned veteran you will find a course four you!  As with all Fit & Able events, the more you race the better swag you get: 2nd Year and 3rd Year participants will get even cooler souvenirs to take home.
